Vargas Stage 2+ Initial Impression

[kart3l]

What are the power levels of the stage 2+ with stock exhaust? And how would it compare to a stock GT?

Don't have the parts yet. I told Adam this, not sure why he is not passing information along to the customer

In his defense, I contacted them first because you had said they would be ready in a few days earlier in this thread, they told me you didn't have them ready yet so i just wanted to confirm they got the order to you.

I'm not in panic mode yet but I did put the order in on the 21st and not having heard any thing is starting to make me nervous, with the added shipping time of the APO to my base in Germany I'm worried the summer will be gone before I get it.

I had a Dyno booked for my Birthday (August 20th) Please don't make me cancel it.

It arrived today!

Going to See if I can get a Dyno booked up to get a final run with the stocker before I swap it out!

How much is it to tune the turbo? Looks like Lund charges 250 for turbos.

Got a lifetime tune from Adam [MENTION=19118]Tune+[/MENTION] so I'm good for any changes I ever make to the car short of aux fuel. I won't be doing that untill I build the engine. Probably going to buy both of those from tune+ too

Yes, it's in the basement! hiding until I have a chance to install it!
She doesn't know I bought it

Ha.... I wish, not on the stock block unfortunately

911 turbo is about the same weight as an EBM but it is 520 HP and 480 ftlbs, (660nm) at the crank

I'm limiting it to 400 WHP 400 wtq to protect the block so figure around 460ish at the crank for both.

It would be close but I think a 911 turbo would just slightly pull on me,
Seeing as I could buy 4 of my cars with all the mods for the price of a 911 turbo, I can live with it;).
That being said any Base 911 Carrera or Carrera S is going to be having a bad day if they come across me on the autobahn.:lol:

Good thing that it looks like a stocker with the heat shield back on!
