Rt 4 IKEA, NJ, Sunday Nights

[gti_in_nj]

suddenly i don't feel so bad about my ride height or cel anymore. thank you

edit: page four!!

[MKV John]

ride height and check engine lights are over rated. it's all about lifted GTI's and catless downpipes with no MAF's

[gti_in_nj]

catless dp is why i have my cel lol. i plan on just going stage 3 all at once and not wasting the money on revo stage two

[gti_in_nj]

do we have an official time yet?

[MKV John]

lol, 10 thousand dollar fines ftl.

uhh, stage 3 as in k04 or gt30?

because revo dosnt have file for any other turbo...

and you would need a new downpipe if you plan on going gt30

[gti_in_nj]

damn i was hoping to go with the atp gt28rs for now...so if i go with the gt30 i can run revo stage 3 software? no k04 here.

[ink_blot]

Stage 3 turbo Same route I want to go.

[MKV John]

well revo's stage 3 is for a gt30
and it's also not released
and you do realize if you have revo stage 2 already it's only an upgrade fee for the big turbo flash.

take advice and go k04, you will run into nothing but problems unless you just sit on your money and wait for people to be sure with they're big turbo kits. unless you go APR stage 3 for 5,999

[ink_blot]

APR S3 Conversion FTW.

[gti_in_nj]

well i would need about another 12 weeks before i could be sure about pulling the trigger on the kit. i was contemplating the k04 but i think i'd need more power later on down the road. yes i know about the upgrade as well it's still a lot to think about. i was thinking about just sitting on the money and wait to see how others are handling the bt kits. i guess a set of coilovers would hold me over for a bit.

[ink_blot]

I just got my new coils in. Not on the car yet. My ride height sucks.

[gti_in_nj]

i do like apr's stage 3 kit and the realiability is second to none but that price tag is a hard thing to swallow. i've heard some bad things about kmd tuning's k04 like missing pieces and such. i wouldn't be against there kit as i've had no problems with their service to date.

what coils? i'm looking into the k-sports through bsh or b&g rs line

[ink_blot]

FK haha. I know someone who has K sports and i heard they go pretty low and that there great coilovers. Not to sure about B&G's, but my decision was between FK and B&G.

not very trueman, if you're comparing what all the mkiv guys say.
they all do k04 and get 225 whp and want a lot more. we get 310-315 wheel on an agressive k04 tune 290-300 on a regular tune. where as you would end up spending a lot more on a custom turbo set up for not much reliability and mayyyyybe 15-20 whp more

interesting. thank you for that info. who's offering k04 besides apr and kmd?

[gti_in_nj]

revo stage 2 is 599.99 right? if so it appears to be cheaper to just wait to go k04 and pay 699.99 for the stage 3 software??

http://www.kmdtuning.com/store...8.jpg

just over 300whp

i dont think you realize what you're saying haha, check it out. if you buy revo stage 1. it's like 500 bucks or something

then say you buy a downpipe, you upgrade to stage 2 for like 50 dollars i believe, then say you buy a k04 kit, youonly pay for an upgrade fee again of like 200 bucks.

AWE offers my choice k04 kit at the moment.
it's my overall favorite and if i was going to do a k04 kit, it'd be awe's.

but they use giac. which i also believe is an upgrade fee if you buy their stage 2 andthen want to upgrade

awe has a k04 kit out

edit - john your a sack of ****, you beat me to it

[MKV John]

oh and kmd would totally have my next choice. number 1: its the cheapest, number 2 they're local. number 3 good guys and number 4 they're kits are underrated in power, i've seen them dyno 320 whp on a k04 kit.

[das pui]

my dad just comes in my room to tell me he moved my car out of my driveway and asked why the whole bottem of the car scrapes on the way out
