i am stage II...

lol..lame post but damn i love my car so much more now...

giac flash, tubi exhaust, bmc filter, and bailey valves.

that car rips and the exhaust now sounds like a machine gun going off at full throttle with the added boost...

should i be getting a consistent 1.0 bar? it seems i mostly have been seeing 0.9

I was told that it's useless to put headers when turbos are the same (k16).. is this true ?

You are correct sir! You should be good to 600 HP with the stock headers. Those waste gate actuators are worth looking into though!

No pics of the actual DIY install but you can go in 2 ways...

If you have a Remote Display
-Route thru the left pillars all the way down and plug it in a switched 12V near the lower center console... (that's what I did, at least)...


If no Remote Display
- you can connect the wire directly onto your dome lights area and llok for a switched 12V

There are lots of DIY on renntech...

so jealous, sounds fun though.

Does stage 2 just mean chip, exhaust, DV's and filter? What is the estimated HP on that set up?

I find it tough to find anything worthy to race in my stock 996TT. I cant wait for stage II, exhaust is on the way and chip is not far...
