OCT tuning stg1 is stg2 chip necessary?

**rmedy23** · August 31st, 2009, 23:46

I have the OCT tuning chip stage 1 and mod are downpipes black sport exhaust dv's k&N drop ins.......
but do you think its necessary to pay more money to upgrade to stage 2 chip..... 1250..

haha, isn't this more of a personal question? If you want more power then go for it, if stage 1 is enough then...

Also, K&N filters are known to deposit micro oil droplets on the MAF's. You should consider getting a set of ITG's or going back to OEM (I did

).

kindly paypal me $50 for saving you $1250.

I have milltek race cats/exhaust and water injection. OCT "stage 1" chip which works great. I called and spoke directly to the US dist. (Bob of stratmosphere) and he told me unequivically there is no other setup available to the public.

I had CC in hand ready to pay, so i have no reason to doubt the veracity of that statement. I don't know why they even advertise the product, since there is no such thing.

Really hmmmmm! He didn't offer the chip? Or did he say it doesn't exist in the USA

whats the difference? not made, or not available. either way you can't have it. if you want more power you need to invest in other mfg's chipset. oct is the lowest rated typically. go for APR they supposedly give 526 hp on the 91 setting. before you do you should search under my name for my apr experiences, good and bad.

Or...what I am doing is, as I have the downpipes and 100 cell cats (thought I have it cat-less currently), Dahlback intake ($399 craigs list), APR divertor valves, I am getting a MTM stage 2 (545Hp) for the beast ($2780) for the Beast. I also have to put in a 5 bar fuel pump and FPR, but those are cheap if you know where to look. Like Darkwing said, its really a matter of choice. I am waiting until the turbos leak for an excuse, alas I have but 42K on her.

nice upgrades ..... they use the borsch 044 right... but what i noticed is that not everybody uses the fuel pump and 5 bar..... i wonder why ... less aggressive..tuning

**formula1man** · September 2nd, 2009, 17:43

Yep, it is the 5 bar Bosch 044. $190 and $88 for the FPR.

are new injectors needed? How many HP can stock injectors put out before having too high a duty cycle?
