Just bought myself an ED30, wondering what sort of bhp I will be getting from a stage 2 remap? Also what parts will I need that will work best without restricting power, can anyone help me on this! Cheers

Welcome on board. :drinking:
I wouldn't worry about numbers to much, each tuner (and or map) will give you different ones depending on the mods you have fitted.
Stage 2 will be a Sport cat Turbo Back Exhaust or decat TBE and a decent Cold Air Intake. Advisable to add an Intercooler for stage 2 but not essential. Make sure your DV is a Rev G, check your PCV, make sure your Coilpacks are the latter revision as there was a recall and ONLY run your car on 99RON ideally VPower Nitro+.
If your Eddy's a manual look also adding an uprated organic clutch with a new OEM DMF as you'll be close (if not over) to the limits of your OEM one. Some go straight away at stage 1 and others are ok at stage 2+ depending on age and abuse it's suffered and the way it's been used.
And your brakes are crap and they will need to deal with all those new ponies so add a BBK to the list.
Thousands of threads on all the subjects your interested in on the site. Have a search around.

Cheers mate! Any chance you know the list of parts (make) I need so I can look them all up and get a price! May need to start saving haha!

As said numbers will depend on tuner and the rollers.... But expect over 300 horse :evilgrin:
As for intakes most go for EVOMS, Revo or ITG
Exhaust BCS or Milltek :happy2:

Ok cheers! What about intercoolers?

Ok cheers! What about intercoolers?
There are a few different solutions all having pros and cons...
Twin setup like the Forge Twintercooler and Airtec solution
Bigger than OEM include the S3, THS, Airtec Stage 2, Peron, Wagner Etc etc
If you fit one of the latter you can also remove the air con to allow better flow and save weight :evilgrin:

Sorry to hijack, I've just got me a THS one for my eddy can the air con still be added with this cooler as I don't want to sacrafise it really, and would it make much difference in power if I did keep the air con etc?

Yh the cooler sits behind the air con if you keep it and not so sure on the power side of things. THS installed on an Eddie with air con still in place...
