What, you couldn't affor the Stage four, twin-turbo set-up How long till you get the kit, and are you doing the install yourself, or taking it somewhere? Anyways, I'm jealous, can't wait till I can go FI in my car. Waiting on Templars SC kit, which works out fine, since have no money for food right now, let alone FI! Congrats!

Does forced air technologies have a website that I can check out? I am researching turbo kits for an 02 RS.

Its forcedairtech.com

It's a nice kit. It's a bit more expensive than the Ludespeed but the fact that you don't need to lift the engine might be worth it.

The stage 3 was actually prototyped on my RS. It is a very nice quick with super fast throttle response. The turbo is HUGE and stills spools quickly which is rare. It seems to be sized well with the engine.

I enjoyed the kit very much while it was on my car.

HTH,

what do u mean lift the engine ?
i am lookin at the ludespeed also but i need a few more3 bucks.

 

[VanillaEps]

I downloaded an instruction booklet for the Ludespeed. It was a Stage I for the 99-00 RS. The first step is lifting the engine to replace the stock oil pan with an oil pan that had a return oil feed.
The Forced Air Tech website mentions that you don't need to lift the engine.

I have know idea how much my car puts down but the robert had one dynoed in arizona with a stage 3 kit like mine and the said they were getting like 260 to 280 at the crank on aveage, but i would like to get mine own on a dyno for real proof since i have a few other mods. I did pull a 13.978 1/4 with no hard start if that says anything though.

 

[Sebaflex]

13.9?!?
Im pretty sure you SHOULD get better E.T's

 

[FRAKK's2.5]

13.9 that's very nice dood! I can't wait until I get my it won't be until next year though:curse: ...
Let us know how this turns out for you

What's the difference between stage 2 and stage 3? I meant, I know the mechanical difference . . . But what is the implication in the mechanical difference?

Chieh

 

[kastle]

The main difference is the turbo. The stage III gets a GT 25 (dual roller bearing) whereas the stage II gets the Stage3-TO4E turbo.
