My dump pipe and stage 2 Bluefin

[gh172]

I went stage 2 with bluefin not long ago myself. I'd read in forums that it's quite common to get fuel cuts when going stage 2. I thought I was ok until I tried flooring it from low rpm in 4th and 5th. And there they were! You might want to try that yourself .
I added the APR HPFP which sorts that out, along with a little more extra squirt in the mid range. Also makes it feel a little smoother in the way the power comes on.

Have any of you with the Stage 2 Bluefin tune done a dyno?

I've just done mine today and was a little disappointed with 156kw. Expected more since I've read some people achieving 147kw with only Stage 1.

As most of us have experienced in the past, there are so many contributing factors with dyno results. You could go to a different dyno the next day and gain or loose 15kwatw. Don't stress!

just ask yourself if your happy with the way the car performs now?

That looks like great work on the dump pipe! That's the same place that did the exhaust on Jo's 200SX isn't it? You're a bad influence on me Brendon!

nice dump pipe, looks good. Now to get the catback lol. How is the bluefin tune im still tossing up between Giac and Revo but i dont mind taking a look at bluefin hows the pricing?

Bluefin is cheaper than both Giac and Revo - although generally is a slightly milder level of tune that the American ones. In saying that, my Golf R made 186kw on Friday with Stage 1 Bluefin and VW Racing intake.

Nice Lucas the Golf R stock how much kw's is that? still little confused as i was reading on there website that its just plug and play and there's no need to take the ecu out. But by my knowledge all those other branded tunes like revo,giac and APR require you to take your car to a dealership to get it down and they have to take the ecu tune out.
