I do not think they will...he said the only things used will be cam gears, sig cat back and surely the xede?

Shiv, does it look like the estimate Brett posted elsewhere of circa $7000.00 for the stage 2 has been xeded now? (xcuse the play on words)
Oh crap hit the wrong button...sorry folks!!

Shiv,
I don't understand your comparison of how stage 2 is going to make stage one look stock? Could you enlighten us a bit more? Keep up the great work!

By that, I mean Stage 2 will be capable of making some serious power. It won't be for everyone but it should satisify the power-hungry folks.

Cheers,
shiv

Hiya,
Stage 2 will indeed upgrade the turbo, exhaust manifold, injectors, pump and downpipe. About the only thing that it will share in common with Stage 1 is the cam gears and cat-back. It's a very serious package and should put down some very serious numbers.
cheers,
shiv
should we not bother to buy the stage 1 downpipe that's available now then? is XEDE even applicable in stage 2?

thanks

Are you sure you know what your getting into? Willing to run higher than TX pump gas day in and out to put that major system to work? I dont doubt you bro Ive just seen it many times. Near Austin? I will let you check out my stage 1 (maybe 1+ by next week) Im telling you it eats up real estate very fast!

oh ha yea i really dont know what im talkin about to be honest...just dont like the fact that i cant "go up" the Vishnu stage upgrades anymore after stage 1. What are your plans for the Evo after stage 1 then if you don't want to go stage 2, MP5? whats the "plus" in stage 1+ consist of? cam gears, downpipe, and what?

thanks

Please dont think I was slamming you man. The stage 1+ is cams/ cam gears/Xede/ Full Exhaust and will be more than a z06 puts down. Fast in other words the regular stage 1 is very quick and requires careful throttle modulation in the corners- you can easily break all four loose at will. The stage 2 is for sickophants those that used to/still do snort the whole 8 ball instead of a line or two. Those that have to have three women at the same time- you get the point. Something wed all like to experience but realize the more sensible approach is the beter path

I resemble that last remark. At pesent,I have a stage 1,Shiv Tuned,w/ Fuel pump,Bar/Plate FMIC,Turbo back,Cam gears. I like the idea of stage 2 but also see the merits of 1+. Driveability and reliablity are supreme. However, 100+ is available at the pump here in Az. and as long as Vishnu can come up with a reliable stage 2, that may be the way to go for us psychos.

ha no... i understand everything that you're saying. with daily driving and $$$ in mind, what do you have planned for life after stage 1+? i just dont like the fact that we can't go up on the vishnu upgrade path anymore (being loyal fans and all)...any suggestions?

thanks

Im going to learn to drive the car like Shiv and Rhys Millen. Track days are already scheduled for well into next year. Then maybe shiv might toy with a dual scroll 20G but I seriously think that the car will be such an awesome well rounded machine it might not need much more. I meas Im already as fast as my WRX in a straight line had 6.5K in that and 7+ in the suspension. EVo stage 1 owns both
