UMW Stg2

I have the following: Stg2 Turbos, 5 Bar FPR, DV's, RWD Conversion, New Plugs and a Stg2 Tune

My 1st impresions are.......

I drove the car for around 25 miles on the new setup/tune, my 1st impression is TORQUE. You can feel the tq wanting to pull at any speed. Punching the car at a 45mph roll in 2nd gear cuts the rears loose. Spools up very fast, very nice and smooth power. It pulls very hard thru 4 gears, very nice power delivery.

Didn't do much more than that since it was so dark, I am not much of an aggressive driver on dark highways. I will give you more updates within the next couple of days


I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for nice, clean, delivery of power for around $10k, very hard to beat IMO
Looks like a winner

Look forward to your updates.....currently giving consideration re UMW Stage 2 ZC. Recently purchased a LWFW/Sachs clutch package from Kevin, will install in a few weeks time. Christian did you also purchase the race gas file ?

Cheers, Mark

Christian, sounds like an awesome setup. Did you get the zero clearance option? Also, are yours k16/24 or the k24/26's?

Are you currently running the stock clutch?

Uh, I think its your driving style. I have a stock clutch that was put in a year ago. Two months ago the UMW flash alone started making the clutch slip.

What are the changes between K24/26 and K16/24? Both having ZC? Glad the car is running great.

Thanks for the info, I am thinking of doing the same package in the near future. Still need an exhaust system next, though.

This sounds like a good package. What's included? I'm debating on my next upgrade.

Did you ship your car out there or have the install done locally? Does the $10k include the shipping/installation/etc. or just the cost of the parts?
