I'm not sure lol £717 doesnt seem like much of a sale :sad1: but if it helps my car go quick i'm in ha ha.
I think thats practically all the parts now as soon as this arrives i'll get myself booked in to revo for a stage 2 +

I shipped it to the states for rebuild, and because i had a spare pump i paid the equvalent of 371£ for the rebuild minus shipping :jumping:

I am sure you know this but i cant see much of point of going 2+ and pump without the exhaust to free it all up. It would be like driving round with hay fever or a heavy cold. Everything will be bunged up. I know your main factor is cost but you should not underestimate the difference the zorst makes. :happy2:

Thats a great thread, i love those type of threads. :smiley:
I can only give my view on the benefits as i fitted the zorst first, there was a definite increase in mid range grunt and a loss of torque at the bottom end. which suited me fine as it made it easier to get off the line.
When i went stage 2 revo which is designed for the added zorst it brought the whole thing together and it felt a great deal better all round less wheel spin and a wider power band. I am sure he is right that if you only boot it occasionally then doing it without the zorst is a viable option, but i think he needs to go in one with the full compliment as i think it will start him saving up straight away. :happy2:

I read this post and tend to agree that the exhaust especially on the Ed 30 works pretty well especially if you gauge the huge step you get just on a re-map on stage 1.
The HPFP will certainly help in the mid range from what I have seen and the icing on the cake will be the exhaust.
I'm going down the same road this Thursday at Awesome. I 've got APR Stage 1 with absolutely nothing else done. I've even got a stock filter in the air box but I will be interested to see the result on the dyno as I will be going to their stage 1 high flow fuel pump map. They have tailored a map around the APR fuel pump which come's free. :happy2:
I'd rather save the money on paying for the exhaust and put it towards brakes. I reckon from my recent track work that the gains I'd see on the dyno for just the exhaust going onto stage 2 would be marginal on lap times.
Hopefully I will get most of this posted on here for comparison for people who don't necessary want to change their exhausts at this stage of tuning.
