Just gone Stage 2..
« on: 17 September 2008, 17:39 »
I was just at my local tuner (Quattronics) earlier getting my exhaust altered (was sticking out a little to far for my liking) and after getting Corey and Revo's advice (and the fact Revo offer 30 day money back guarantee). I thought feck it and got Stage 2 loaded on whilst I was there..
Now I have been thinking about it for a while now but between me being a bit busy at work and wondering whether to or not, it got put on the back burner. But after speaking with Revo earlier (ordering my Select + switch) I had a long chat with Carl about it all and decided I may as well give it a try and see what difference it makes. As he said I may as well considering I have the TBE, but still on Stage 1..

Anyway, once the map was loaded on, me and Corey went out with the laptop to set her up (like was done last time) and make sure we get the settings bang on to suit my car. Ended up being Boost 8, Fuel 9 and Timing 6 (very simlar to before, but apparantly it's different on stage 2).
So just got back after short drive home and intially I can notice a difference straight away. Difference being I am now getting a nicer kick up the arse at around 3-3.5k and even more noticable is the top end pull at around 6k which is..  :drool:..
Will report back later when I have had a better run out in it, but happy to say i'm AGAIN a happy customer and for £50, why the hell not..  :wink:
Just need the RR day to see what she's kicking out..

Exactly.. It's not going to be giving me massive peak figure gains. But it's where and when the power is delivered now that make it that bit better.. Should see about 10bhp extra too.. :wink:

Definately agree with that mate.. Same with Corey at Quattronics. Didn't even know I was coming but still did my stage 2, went out mapping, sorted my exhaust and spent a good half hour re-applying (with screws) my (Gulf's) footrest plate that had come off due to doublesided tape not being strong enough (done a bloody good job too I might add) and all for £50..  :wink:
