How much HP gain do you get from this stage 1?

@DArias

Awesome man!! And it’s a huge jump you’ll be at around 380 (crank) and 400ish torque. If you decide on a downpipe stage 2 e30 you can bump it up to about 400whp and 420-430 torque which is an absolutely riot

That’s awesome! Def one big thing too is the fact of the AWD vs the FWD as in 2nd geR for example the s3 will just instantly hook and go putting you back into your seat while the gti would most likely spin a little bit before hooking up so it’s a different sensation

Love that you got this man

@@yungcharq u can do it but it will screw with ur cats and its more of a very quiet burble. Trust if anything just do res delete with secondary cat delete and get the tune. That will b best n most subtle but again it will ruin that 1 cat u have left on ur oem downpipe eventually..

what was the price jump to go from your stage 1 tune to stage 2 im debating whether to go stage 1 unitronic and sit on that for a while since they are offering it on sale right now or just go straight to stage 2 i was just wondering what would be more cost efficient

@DArias

2 жыл бұрын

If your end goal is to go stage 2 then I would wait tbh. It would be more cost effective to get all the bolt ons, on and then hop into stage 2. Unless unitronic offers a cheap retune free of like $100-$200 dollars. If they don’t however I would wait

No IE is great! Awesome products. Personally from what I’ve read up on and seen just EQT fit my wants more as they’ve been setting many records on their tunes. Rn for most power with reliability you can get is a toss up between EQT, sneeky & UM

I ran a 11.96 you can check the video on my page, 1502 DA on the EQT E30, you can notice the nasty humidity on the foggy windows, only modes besides the tunes are downpipe and k&n filter, on a dragy with better DA I ran a 11.93 on 93 and a 11.72 on E30, so the chances are there to make 11s on 93, before you go to the strip I recommend practicing your launch on a dragy, you need to be between 1.79 to 1.81 60’ (dragy reads higher than the strip)then you will be really there, my best results are with the transmission in Sport and just let it do it’s thing, My best launch are on 3200 rpms, it will take a little practice find your spot. Work on that 60’ and Good Luck 👍🏻 I will be waiting for that video.
