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

clicky
AFAIK TBE included


thats 3000 mind + you already have to have stage 1.

The JKM K04 stage 2 package essentially builds on our K04 1.2 package. Additions include a large bore high flow Turbo Downpipe and Catalytic converter, TFSI fuel pump upgrade and an upgraded Intercooler system (Various options).

2) Complete Turbo Back Milltek Exhaust system
Please note that due to a number of variations on tailpipe design in some cases, An exhaust with direct fitment to an OEM rear Valance along with Resonated (Quieter type) silencers has been selected for pricing below. Other options are available on this package - Please contact JKM for a tailored exhaust quotation if you require a different option....

Thought it already included it. Either way, it'll all get done in one go.

I went with JKM for the whole lot - very please with the results.  No early peaks of power at 3000rpm, just a smooth stock like delivery of power until it gets manic at the higher rev range  :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:  and that was only Revo Stage 1  :kiss: :drool: :drool:  Revo Stage 2 with the bolt-on mods I have turns the car into a monster - I can feel the brake pedal trembling when moving in slow moving traffic - it just wants to go  :evil: :evil: :evil:

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:

What hp are you getting now on race file on a stock exhaust?

at awesomes day out it was 305, but the intercooler and dbilas are on now so its anyones guess.

....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?

think its 10k i have done since i started moddin it. recent service showed no issues and car is reg vag-com / vcds.

....Good practice to keep a regular eye on it via VCDS.

Bang your hand on the cat box occasionally too to check for rattles as a sign of deterioration.

waydaygo Claire!  :grin:

Bummer about other half being made redundant. Saw gary at Donny Park, but didn't get a chance to say hello and have usual chat!

The CGTI bunch had end of year track day today. You should have come along in your car, although the track was covered in oil after an Evo blue off his oil filter and then drove round on the racing line!

9 7 and 4 eh?

Probably boost 7, timing 4 and fuel 9  :smiley:
Sounds like that's what it is.. T4 is very low though considering it's run on Super (T99)..  :huh:
Oh and Golfgirl, there wasn't any Revo'd ED30's run @ the JKM RR day was there? :huh:

Those settinmg might be completely wrong, I honestly can't remember them.

And no, as far as I can remember there were no Edition 30's with Stage 1 REVO at JKM but I am basing my guesstimate on power on what other remaps achieved with no other mods.

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:

Why wait, stage II is only £50 plus VAT upgrade on stage I if you use REVO.  Even if you go straight to stage II you still pay stage I plus the upgrade so overall it's the same price.

May as well have some fun while you save.  :evil:

Golf Girl, if you are buying a Select Plus then it's only £99 plus VAT if you buy within 28 days of the remap which is a bargain.
