I can't wait to get my stage 2's in this weekend and was wondering what can I expect rwhp and boost with stage 2s with a stock hpop and factory turbo. I plan on updating later but wondering what i'll have till than
Anyone have quarter mile times or dyno numbers with stage 2s and stock oil and turbo?

 

I dynoed 350hp on the mark with 2's. But I had leaky up pipes, intake seals blown out, wrong programming (for stage 1's at the time), and at least one missing injector.

So what can you expect from stage 2's and stock oil........
35psi+ boost which will lead to intake seals blowing out.
Many check engine lights
Butt loads of smoke
And one big azz smile!!!

With the right programing and all seals in tact, prolly 400hp or so. And I would assume low 15's to high 14's in the quarter.

 

I already have a big smirk on my face everytime i think abou them. Can't imagine what it will be like when they are actually in What are the intake seals? (they the boots going from turbo to intake manifold)

 

No, actually where the intake plenum seals to the cylinder head.

 

Whats needed to fix that? just a seal or whole new intake plenum

 

Pull them off, clean them real good and put some new Jose Putty, or grey RTV on them. Then give them a chance to cure. But to do so, the turbo has to come off.

 

oh. how big a deal is it to run them blown out? I dont see much sense in pulling turbo and not putting a bigger one on but dont have the money to at the moment.
I know i have one uppipe gasket leaking and the second will probabily follow soon. How bad are they to change out?

 

Still running it since April. Haven't had the chance to fix them. Since the motor never goes into vaccum and always has positive pressure, it won't hurt anything but your fuel mileage. And that goes for both up pipes and intakes. Motor is just less efficient.

Unless you pull the tranny, they are a pain to change. But can be done, just takes time.

 

Miller did you send your sticks to Jim to have them rebuilt or did you get one of the rebuild kits. Im pullin mine out on thursday night and sending them in on friday morning.

 

When are you putting them in Wes? You need to call me when your home I can help put them in if you want but I want you to take me for a ride when they are installed

 

fox he's sending me a set and i'm sending mine back as cores. I'm away at school and dont have anywhere to let the truck set for multiple days waiting to get my sticks back. I'm planning on tring to change them out friday night when i get home adn have th erest of the weekend to play

 

O ok. Ya i was going to do that but my truck only has 80,xxx on it so i didnt want to end up with injector bodies with 200,000 miles on them. So tomorrow night i am taking them out and sending them into him friday morning. Did he tell you how much it was to ship the new ones to you was?
