Tuning Stages - Marcus1991 - 07-01-2013

Sorry if this has been asked before, I just couldnt find any info Smile

What are the stages of tuning on a DTurbo, what gets done on stage 1, stage 2 etc?


RE: Tuning Stages - Ed Doe - 07-01-2013

Stage 1 is adjusting the stock turbo and fuel pump.
Stage 2 is invariably a fmic, more often than not a slightly larger but still relatively cheap turbo, and maybe some mild pump modifications
Stage 3 is some decent money spent on the right turbo, and depending on what you're going for, further pump internals modification.
Stage 4 involves putting a large hole in the side of the block as the engine shits itself. And/or shitting your turbo. Depends largely on whether your car is a black hatchback or a white estate really...
stage 5 involves rebuilding a donor engine with forged rods and then stage 3 repeated, but has been known to end in nearly hydro locking the engine on its own oil.
Stage 6 involves supercharging it, then shitting the fuel pump
.......

Stage 1 turn up the fuel pump..

The rest doesn't make sense, there's no set route.

Ed in unfunny reply shocker.

That's like saying there's 16 stages of GTi tuning depending on how many valves have dropped lmao

Ooh I think I touched a nerve! lol
Sorry pellowe, I forgot to include the bit about cooling the head gasket, or shitting 2 turbos in 3miles Tongue

S'funny though, still went in a straight line.

I had images of you hanging out the window to balance weight distribution seen as some inconsiderate Peugeot apprentice built your car 12" shorter on one side.

BTW i'm not fancying your group buy, you have a history of picking poorly built parts. What happened with your last camber adjustable set? Didn't they put you in the back of another car? Or was it those bloody imaginary cyclists again?


RE: Tuning Stages - strictly_perv - 07-01-2013

Again Ruans right, after stage 1 it's all pretty much personal preference/what people can afford to spend on old french cars really. I mean Ruan has a upgrade turbo, 11mm pump but no FMIC where as I have a larger turbo, 9mm pump and a FMIC yet we're probably running similar peak power.

stage 3 is best described as digging a massive hole in your driveway and pouring all the money you earn into it
