Stagea 260RS - the modding begins
Posted: Tue Sep 29, 2009 9:24 pm
Although the Stagea has a decent cat back exhaust as standard and must have had around 300bhp, it seemed a bit laggy on the road. It will never be super quick due to the weight it carries, but i wanted to liven it up a bit without playing with boost for now.
It now has an uprated downpipe, freeflow cat, modified 'twin turbo' pipe, a lightweight flywheel and uprated clutch.
It feels much more responsive on the road now. I stuck it on Clives Dyno as he is just up the road and these are the figures.

Boosting at 10.7 psi and fueling is ok due to slight increase in rail pressure. May try a little more boost. Better order the pistons, rods, crank and gaskets ready for the rebuild lol.
