Stage 2 if you go for the Milltek downpipe, otherwise you're stuck with stage 1. The standard CAT is very restrictive.

I would wait get the milltek etc then fmic then get stage 2

 

[Murdered LCR]

And you don't need a down pipe just sports cat or de cat I don't have a down pipe , obv it's better to have one

Thanks for your help

Does anyone know if the the miltek downpipe is inculded in the miltek system
obviously i will have to check. don't know if anyones ordered from here before?

i would love to get the fmic but they are big money sadly i won't be able to wait long enough would it affect the result much hoping the standard intercoolers would be ok for now, just a new FMIC would give lower temps

 

[Murdered LCR]

No milltek don't do a down pipe for the lcr . Search on e bay pipewerx there 300 quid for down pipe and decat

 

[Murdered LCR]

Lower temps higher boost better top end defo try and get one the wait will be worth it

thanks dan!

what have you got on yours exhaust wise?

and did you get your stage 2 after fitting the forge intercooler?

 

[Murdered LCR]

I have a full milltek with de cat , standard down pipe I want the pipewerx one tho so may get that , I waited till I had all my bits fitted ready for stage 2 so fmic was all ready fitted , if you have it fitted after the map you won't get the best from it as the mapper can't use as high bost settings etc

 

[sambryant]

dan i just about to order a fmic 2nite. im going for the tx kit, so i take it its ok to fit on a non mapped car, its going to be a few months before i get mine mapped.
also did you get any gains when yours was first fitted?

 

[Murdered LCR]

Yer it's fine I had all mods fitted for a good few months befor my map , i made 233 bhp on the rollers with stage 2 mods with out the map so yea gained a bit from 210

 

[sambryant]

nice one m8
do you know anything about these tx intercooler kits? last thing put a link up for your facebook so i can add you

 

[Murdered LCR]

I don't have face book mate haven't for a few years lol ,I haven't herd of them people are using the toyo sport ones

 

[sambryant]

i have spoken to turbin on the forum who uses this one and he tells me the quality is second to none, he said hes over the moon with it.

[Murdered LCR]

It looks ok the smaller forge one is bigger than that it comes above the crash bar altho size isn't everything lol , give it a try mate

 

[sambryant]

im sure i read that the intercoolers are double the depth on the forge cooler. just want to make sure im buying the right bit of kit. cant afford the forge kit atm

 

[Murdered LCR]

If it's the one turbin is using go for it his makes good power

re-map

Hi

I was told I couldn't have stage 2 by Revo unless I got a high flow down pipe & fmi, they said there woud be no point? Got the downpipe in the boot (Piper to go with Milltek) but none of my mates will fit as they said it's a bitch job on the lcr, more money for fitting

 

[Murdered LCR]

It's not that hard to fit if you can get under the car , the more you do befor a map the more power you will make I made 285 with out a downpipe
