whats the diff in stage 2? just the fuel pump? which achives?

Don't need FP for stage 2. But the Stage 2 + will be ready soon to suit the uprated FP. You do however need at least a TBE for Stage 2 and it improved the mid range and top end from what i've found. WHat about you Al..?

A local lad up here has a Cat Back and Carbonio on his K1 and runs Stage 2 based on Revo recommendations. Not sure what the setttings are.

He is however looking to add on the intercooler, pump and downpipe as soon as finances allow.

I was always under the impression Stage 2 code allowed for uprated components, ie more efficient air in and air out and higher revs, but I guess this is maybe not the case as you still run the stock intake do you not Ben?

Yes mate.. Will get a ITG panel filter at some point, but everything is fine at min with my MAF readings peaking at 256 when on VAGCOM.. Not sure how that compares with yours mate?
I am very suprised that Revo recommended that lad to add stage 2 without DP and Sports cat..  . That's not what they told me at HQ. Did he hear that from Revo themselves or just from a Revo dealer..? As just about every Software company I know require TBE for stage 2 software and that's on all makes of cars, not just VAG..
I could be wrong of course.. 

[djhorace]

Really not sure if it was dealer or Revo direct, but I seem to recall it may have been Carl that he spoke to directly.

Not been in the car to see how it is yet right enough, but he seems happy after an initial doubt over a flat spot at 5200rpm.

i knew you could run stage 2 with stock down pipe as the cat does flow enough and i have changed the down pipe on mine last night and i am going to have a look at some logs on vag com tonight but now i know stage 2 can be put on i am going to have a look. Ben i will be coming on saturday now

What will you be logging out of interest?

[MAT ed30]

not sure yet as was going to have a play tonight and was thinking of putting it on a exhaust gas tester to see what it pumps out on stage 1 with stock dp and cat back and then on stage 2 but people said it would fook the cat but i am not sure it would as the stock cat can flow just as well and should have enough back pressure aswell.
