[Fwd: Re: [s-cars] RS2]

[Cody Payne]

Here is what I got from Steve Eiche local chip tuner and enthusiast:
Stage 1[TAB]	Performance EPROMS	~270 hp
Stage 1+	Performance EPROMS, 3 bar MAP sensor, RS2 (or equiv.)
exhaust manifold recommended	~280 hp, [PARA]+more low end torque
Stage 2	Performance EPROMS, 3 bar MAP sensor,[PARA]RS2 exhaust manifold,
RS2 (or equiv.) Turbo, silicon pressure hoses[PARA]Performance exhaust
recommended	~315 hp
Stage 3	Performance EPROMS, 3 bar MAP sensor,[PARA]RS2 (or equiv.)
exhaust manifold, RS2 MAF, RS2 Injectors, RS2 (or equiv.) turbo,
performance exhaust system, RS2 or adjustable fuel pressure regulator,
silicon pressure hoses, performance intercooler optional	~320+ hp
Stage 4	Performance EPROMS, 3 bar MAP sensor, RS2 MAF, RS2 Injectors,
RS2 (or equiv.) turbo, port and polish head, performance exhaust
camshaft, performance exhaust system, silicon pressure hoses, large
intercooler, improved oil cooler, adjustable fuel pressure
regulator[PARA]Strengthened rods recommended	~340+ hp
Stage 4+	As above with larger MAF, performance rods, 8.5:1 CR
pistons, large, front mounted intercooler	~400+ hp
Stage 5	Custom	~450+ hp

This is from Hap to get 400+HP:
-8) What other mods do people do to take the car to near 400 HP?  Stage3 MTM
is rated at 320HP..how do guys get another 80 out of her?
Now, we're talking real expensive. Front mount I/C, bigger turbo, head
work(debatable results here and while you're there might as well do a full 3
angle valve job and bore match intake and exhaust manifolds with extrude
honing, bigger yet injectors(I like RC 370cc @ 3.0 bar, forged rods(and while
you're down there you might as well do a lower end engine rebuild. While all
this is going on a full blueprint and balance might be called for with the
option of forged pistons to go with the rods. The last step is to find an
ECU/Big MAF that will handle the flow that 400hp+ requires.

I had 350 out of a 3B. Sounds like someone doesn't know what they are
talking about... Is Hap out there?????
