    What next after stage 2+ Golf R

    Hi all,

    I've just fitted a full TBE milltek to my Golf R and am pondering what to do next?

    My current spec is 2010 R, APR stage 2 tune, APR CAI, APR HPFP, Milltek TBE Exhaust.

    So what would the next step on the tuning ladder be?

    I'm also keen to get it up on the rollers to see what sort of Dyno reading I would be getting? any suggestings on where to take my car for this.


    thanks for your comments

    Ugghh- you are confirming my fears. My car is going in for Giac extreme next week and I am fearful that it will not be enough and I will then be tempted to keep going to stage 3 or change cars.

    The next step would be a bigger turbo setup.

    you will be happy with giac.
    "Forced induction" sounds like some sort of sexual assault.

    Turbo upgrade or massive weight removal (i.e. rear seats, performance alloys, sports front buckets)

    APC at underwood are the people who dynoed mine. Only really suitable if you are southside but. Im curious to see another R go on their dyno for comparison sake.

    Another suggestion for more power is Discharge/throttle pipe. Some people have claimed 10hp from these two pipes.

    If your real keen you could try water/meth but I have been recommended not to bother as things tend to go bang if your not careful.

    EDIT: maybe a dsg tune/upgrade
