    212 at the wheels?? That seems really high for the mods you have.... would mean that it's 240 ish at the crank....

    What kind of dyno?

    Stage II pipe? FYI It doesn't really effect the power just the sound.

    Best bang for the buck is a downpipe and a stage II tune.

    Anything over stock and the clutch will slip within a couple thousand miles. TSI's have weak clutches.
    Need Vag-Com in Eastern Nebraska and Western Iowa? Send me a PM.

    with the stage 1 you should be ok, but stage 2 is too much for stock clutch.

    a stage 2 daily or endurance clutch from Southbend will do you well. Handle well into 400+ lbs/tq Stage 3 your looking at like ~450ft/lbs.

    check this out. endurance is next after my K04.

    save your money and get ko4 kit. APR stg3 is Bad @ss but unless you race/track your care ko4 will be more than enough for street. I am Stage2 and i have dxd stage 3 clutch disk only. Grabs great and is as silent as stock.

    yes APR sells 2 turbo kits, stage 3 and ko4. there are couple other ko4 kits out there, but APR has good strong following, so most chose to go with them.

    12k in 6 months, must be mainly highway driving. in any case its coming sooner than later.

    VW does not advertize this, but yes - many of their cars/engines approach rated crank power at the wheels. The TDI, too.
