Lets talk Stage 2 Edition 35.......WITH PICTURES
« on: November 17, 2012, 07:27:19 pm »
.....After deciding keep the ED35, which is currently REVO stage 1 (300bhp on JKMs heartbreaker), I think I should pepp it up a bit more, performance wise.  Stage 2 being the next logical step  :smiley:

Ive already spoken to Charlie at Milltek and sorted a nice price on a TBE resonated system, so thats the exhaust side sorted.

I will be dropping Dan an email at Vanworx reference the stage 2 software, and I should also consider the DSG software - Does anyone know if this is out for the ED35 yet?  And what does the DSG software give me over the standard software, apart from upping the torque levels?

And finally, the intake - On my previous stage 2 GTI's Ive always had Carbonspeed, but there are obviously better gains to be had out there now, but Id like to keep noise levels down as its my wife's car etc etc

Thanks in advance

If it's your wife's car, shouldn't she be the one who decides if it needs 'pepping up'?

As a gather from your message, so  could I really run it stage 2 with no intake.  They always breath better with an intake, but i dont want it sounding like darth vadars cousin, when my wife is on the school run.....

.
By virtue of being a hollow pipe, any and every aftermarket tubular air intake is going to make more noise than a flat panel filter type. Some are 'noisier', or should I say 'louder', than others.
