revo stage 2+
« on: June 17, 2009, 12:11:01 pm »
Hi guys. Im getting the revo stage 2 carried out, induction on already, exhaust at the weekend and software getting done next week. I no whats going to happen next, i will end up getting the stage 2+ done in the very near future.
I was wondering who was all running the stage 2+ on MKV GTI's with DSG and how they found the car felt with it on. I no the torque may be an issue with the box but have been reading that there good for quite a bit and it was nothing to worry about. WHats your thoughts on this.

Cheers

Iain

The box can easily handle that amount on a normal GTI, Jonny C and Hurdy are way above withut any issues as yet.
Dont you need extra cooling for stage 2+  :smiley:

To be honest, I can't see me going for stage 2+ without an LSD and that doesn't fit in with my 'removable' mods policy. It is however FAPPING quick compared to stage 1.

Yes the extra cooling is highly recommend but it can be run on the stock IC (Revo did this on their demo Leon for a while).  :happy2:

Different intercooler?? I think it might just be a pipe that's slightly different?? someone will correct me.

Easy job - I'm sat here watching a million lines of config go onto a router, seemingly at the kind of speeds last experienced when loading Daley Thomson's Decathlon onto my Spectrum...

....It's amazing how many people have tunnel vision and don't consider how best to use all that extra power at the front wheels.

So guys, what change are you finding with the stage 2 in place? Is there a massive change? Better spread of power? Change in your MPG?
Is anyone having problems with fueling on the stage 2?

i had fuel cuts with stage 2 bluefin when hammering it, not all the time but 2nd gear full throttle caused it occasionally

with the apr fuel pump installed this put a stop to it, now revo 2+ and the performance is savage throughout the rev range   :happy2:
