Heat shield 100% fits perfectly. I just leave mine off, because its a PITA, and we were swapping turbos around stock to stage 1, stage 1 to Stage 2. Also sorry for all the Anti-Sieze Stains. Shit gets everywhere, but if you want to take stuff apart again, the Stainless Steel 1800+ degree stuff is the only way to go!

Any quarter mile times with this stage 2 upgrade ?

 

[VargasTurboTech]

Oh we took the car to a 1/2 mile roll race, it did excellent. Trapped almost 150MPH in the 1/2 mile, which was faster than many cars including a HellCat, Many 5.0 Mustangs, Auid R8, it was doing quite well. We did hit a snag on the 1/4 our drag wheels wont quite clear the calipers, we will be addressing it, and heading to the strip asap!

I will take a couple today, but that is 100% correct you cannot tell the difference between stage 2, and stock from the outside

That to me is the big selling point. I could literally have a 500whp machine and pop the hood and people will think it makes no more than 380 at the most.

Vargas, is that a stock wastegate? Are you guys testing it for tolerances or effectiveness? I'd imagine it'd be way out of its league on that monster.

I believe it is a 15psi WGA. They posted it somewhere on this thread or one of their others.

Wonder if it will work with tune+ turbosmart actuator?

For some reason, I thought it was a 17 psi wastegate which was thought to be the same pressure as Adam's.

I emailed Adam when I purchased the tune+ WGA and he informed me that it is an upgrade from the WGA that comes standard on the Vargas stage 2.

 

[PRG3k]

It looks like a stock 'style' actuator. I say style because you can tell slightly that the actuator rod is different than stock. Its covered up by the heat shield of course.

$77 in shipping is what is stopping me from checking out and waiting. The $60 paypal fee doesnt help, but I can understand that one (to an extent at least).

$1999 turns into $2140 real quick.

In my opinion the wastegate on these turbos is as good as the TS smart IWG which is what Adams sells with his custom spring in it. We love all TS products, and its why we are dealers for them, but have had bad luck with their IWG's. I actually have 3 sitting here, and when testing the Stage 2, we wanted to try one, I had one leak on me right out of the box, and I just gave up, as its the second one that leaked on me. The gate that comes on these turbos is 16 psi cracking pressure, and looks EXACTLY like stock. The one on the test unit is an EFR high spring gate which cracks right around the same pressure. The manufacture misunderstood me, and made the sample cracking at 10 psi, fully open at 16 instead of cracking at 16 so we tested with the EFR gate in place. The production units will have the 16 psi cracking gate.

I mean they are in California so I can see a high shipping price but the paypal fee I didn't like either. I got my turbo for the intro price so I'm okay with it.
