Can I go from standard straight to stage 2?

[cuprapete]

Currently have :

FMIC
3inch turbo back with sportscat
SFS TIP
Upgraded panel filter

My question is can I jump straight to stage 2 in terms of remapping? Car is currently standard in terms of playing with ecu.

you may need a 4 bar fpr but i might be wrong.

i am planning to go straight to stage 2 in the next few weeks

just dont do any launches or try loading the engine too much. drive sensibly and use the power smoothly and the standard clutch will be ok.

what do you mean by loading the engine to much?

don't floor it at 2K!

Yeh but most maps are designed for the torque thump to be at 3-4500 rpm. Normally torque is reigned in on first 2 gears.

had it mapped today @ amd tuning.
before: 187.8bhp / 177.4 lb/ft
aftrer : 219.1bhp / 242.8 lb/ft

non stop rain so not had a change to play but i was accelerating down slip road in 3rd and it just spins up good and propper...

was hoping for more from stage 2.. specially as it seemed to b healthy std. may have a boost leek..
also they used the 4 bar fpr aswell.

mods:
fmic, tip, jetex filter, 3"dp, decat, cupra r cat back with no silencer forge split r on full recirc, 4bar fpr
cant post the graph as im on my phone will do it wen i get to a pc!

 

[Dan1720v]

Guessing thats a 180 then... quite low figures, very low for AMD.

 

[cupra-barn]

I'm surprised you didn't get more than that...very surprised!

I'm running a stage one custom map with no FMIC and made more (see sig)

Im not slating anyone at all just seems a bit low

 

[bishy]

:-( hmmmm i dunno why they are low.

 

[cupra-barn]

Very odd. What year is the car? What's the mileage? Has it been maintained well?

Don't mean to be mosey just got me thinking

 

[bishy]

cars done 100k engine is bam head and block was out a auditt225 done around 60k
BAM 1.8 20vt (180 ecu + ancillerys)
K03s Turbo
Silicone TIP
Jetex airfilter
FMIC
Forge*split-r divertor valve.
Cupra R stainless steel exhaust system - modded to remove mid box.
Decat
N112, SAI & N249 Valves removed

may try putting in new sparks / coilpacks. and boost leek test.
another thing wen i removed old intercooler it was full of oil map sensor was covered in oil also.
from prev engine/ turbo dieing so may summin to do with all that oil being blown about the engine!

 

[cupra-barn]

Your engine mods are virtually identical to mine. I've got a pipercross filter, TIP, N112, N249 and SAI removed, 3" Downpipe decat and system.

The only 2 differences between ours are I am running 2.0L TFSI coilpacks, but I wasn't when I had the map put on, and the mapper.

Puzzling how one hits xxx figure and another is so different when so similar.

 

[bishy]

yea unless they diddnt stage 2 it n just put there stage 1 map on it.
i dunno its getting on my tits now lol.

 

[Phillc]

Your figures are almost the same as my stage one was, on a stage two i would expect to see between 230 and 250.
