have you got stage one at the mo then?

Stock. I'm toying with the idea of just going to Stage 2 in one go rather than doing stage 1, save and wait for a bit and then go to Stage 2. I swear, every time I save some money, I suddenly have the urge to spend it straight away.  :rolleyes:

better get a milltek first then as correct me if im wrong but stage 2 is beneficial if you have TBE.

I know what you mean about SURGE after 3000rpm!
I have oettinger remap 305/410Nm on paper. After 3000rpm, especially in 5th, 6th gears (because they are not as frantic as the other four) it feels like airplane accelerating along runway.  :laugh:
Now have problems with my car, does not feel 305hp anymore after the accident, repair, and remap. TOmorrow go to Oettinger again!

Yup, for stage 2 you should already have a TBE installed.

I am the only only one here who doesn't think you need to change your exhaust, the maps plenty fine, plus i have the added bonus that my stock zorst sounds good, a few folk have commented that it sounds the biz.           £1.1k for tbe to get extra 10bhp..........nah! :lipsrsealed:

I think Golfgirl is mistaken unless she uses regular petrol (95 RON) for timing to be 4.

Doesnt need to be a Milltek though Keith - there is that place the lad with the K1 had his 3" front to back system done for £800 and he has the pattern up to the back box now including the downpipe, so subsequent ones will be less.

I also dont think the exhausts are worth what they cost, but I do defo think they are a worthwhile modification - You know what they sound like and it is miles better than stock. Spool and top en power is much better with an exhaust too :smiley:

....How many miles have you been running your performance mods, especially the remap, on a stock exhaust?

Have you ever considered what hotter exhaust temperatures might be doing to your cats?
