Just Got an Upgrade!!

[KareemA4]

Yay for REVO Stage 2!!!
Novitech Tuning down here in Miami just installed my TT225 Injectors and my Forge 004 BOV!!
Now i know you all are thinking "but you have a CVT.... and the BOV... etc....etc...." lol
its actually really loud and its really nice.
Just let off at any rpm higher than 2.5k and you get a nice long pssshhhh.

and just a quick question..... i really dont feel that much of a difference from stage 1.
I feel its a little quicker but i was expecting more
should i just wait for my ECU to adapt to it?

btw big thanks to Sp3C14L 3D who helped me make my choice for the Forge 004 BOV.

[BNZ TOY]

I didn't notice a whole lot of difference either but the "surge of power" continued to a higher rpm, as compared to just stage 1

[KareemA4]

^^^yea, it feels strong up top.
from the way ppl describe it i was expecting something crazy

[Killerteve]

It really isn't that noticeable, but just know you are pushing a few more psi of boost and it holds higher into the rpms (though u still shouldn't expect much above 5K unless u have a FMIC).

[KareemA4]

cool... but i have revo and they dont show stats for stage 2, but APR's stage 1+ claims 235 hp and 272 tq
are those numbers real?

[A4Triple Blk]

Stage 1+ is in my plans so i hope so lol

[chadb2434]

I felt a pretty good difference when I got my stage one+ but I have a 5 spd transmission. And also It felt like the ECU had to drive about 200 miles or so before I really felt its true potential

[QTC]

Give it a few days to adapt. And yeah those numbers are about right (prob a little less hp in reality), but with an exhaust and FMIC

[KareemA4]

yay
lol

[Turbo1A4]

yea it will take a couple days....got any cels yet for the bov?

[KareemA4]

No CEL's yet(thank God)
and the BOV sounds sooo nice, you wont even believe it!

[NightRoller USP]

You should get an exhaust and a FMIC wouldnt be a bad investment either!

[Maverick]

just do a Manual swap.... or get another car
CVT won't hold up long.

That costs alot...

[VAG_4ever]

yay! congratS!

[KareemA4]

^^hey hey
thanks mere

[widgget]

That costs alot...

so does spending $8000 for a new CVT.......

^^^yea, it feels strong up top.
from the way ppl describe it i was expecting something crazy

and whoever told you that doing EFI's and chipping the car would make a "crazy" difference was smoking some crazy shit.
Grats on the upgrade though, enjoy it!

Stage 1+ should be ok with a CVT, as long as you don't upgrade the turbo.

[widgget]

don't beat the hell out of it and it should be fine with what he has now, i wouldn't try to get any more out of it with that transmission though.

[Papachristou]

Stage 1+ should be ok with a CVT, as long as you don't upgrade the turbo.

that guy with the BT CVT said 1+ blew his first CVT tranny

[a4wd]

get a FMIC ASAP

I was pinging like no other whenever I went full throttle. Sounds like marbles inside your motor

[Maverick]

I know it costs a lot.
here is my logic...
OP wants more power so he went to Stage 2 and also injectors.
then he wants to put on a FMIC, up to him.
CVT is working hard already than before. later he may want to get a TP or K04 etc....

Fixing your tranny will be cost way more if warranty doesnt cover the bill.

[chadb2434]

I wanna hear this BOV you have, please get a video up soooon!

[KareemA4]

Hey everyone!!
I just left school now and my BOV destroys my friends blow off spacer in his GTI lol
He was pissed
And alot of my friends like it

[mlchael4]

Did you install the adjustable DBOV, and have you adjusted the settings at all?
Just curious as to how loud or quiet these can get when adjusted.
Thanks,

cool... but i have revo and they dont show stats for stage 2, but APR's stage 1+ claims 235 hp and 272 tq

No they arent real. I asked the tuning shop owner if they were and he said they were, a few weeks ago I raced a stock 3.0 and was basically dead even so figure 220ish and i had intake and dv, now I have an fmic and I feel a difference idk numbers yet though. So probably with all supporting bolt ons you might get there.

[KareemA4]

Yeah, I heard that Charles beat you.
Lol
His facebook status was my 3.0 is faster than a stage 1+ A4
Haha(not laughing at you, just at his old status)
Well atleast my FWD has less of a Drive train loss....

[Tomek6]

Why would you want to make a lot of blow off valve noise with not much power?

[KareemA4]

I like the sound..... It's nice and my car is actually pretty quick.
And before people flame me and etc lol my car is running about the same set up at ConroeA4 but I have a test pipe.
And you saw how quick his car was.....

[A4 KiDD 810]

Lol he said were even cuz he started like a second earlier, either way it was half a car max haha.

[KareemA4]

haha
must have been fun
btw how old are you?

[Tomek6]

I had the turbosmart hybrid DV on my car and after a few CELs and the engine shutting down on me on the highway and every civic wanting to race when they heard the BOV it got tiring.

Its your car though. I have the injectors and program on my car too and I wouldn't say its "quick" enough to justify making that much noise. But if it makes you happy.

i agree with you completly
the thing is im FWD and since i have less weight and less of a Drive train loss my car is quicker than some of the cars at my school.
i beat a 328i sedan and 325i old, a civic SI(2008), alot of GTI's(but stupid DSG ones give me a hard time lol), 07 A4 Quattro and etc..
im just saying my car seems quick....

[A4 KiDD 810]

I'm 17, senior in hs

[KareemA4]

I'm 17, senior in hs

cool cool
im 16, junior in hs

[Tomek6]

No I'm not trying to put you down or anything. It's good that your happy with your car. I'm not saying either of our cars is SLOW. I just think the loud hissing noises should be reserved for cars that have a good reason for making them. Again. If it makes you happy...

[Monkey77]

Agreed
Your CVT is be over-worked as it is. It all depends on what you want to do in the long run, and your big picture for the car. If you want to put down some decent power, I'd rec the tranny swap as well. It is better to have all the basics in proper working function, before you get too crazy with any quest for power, since they do tend to be the weakest link.
good luck and congrats all the same

[A4 KiDD 810]

Its not "loud hissing noise" that should be reserved for other cars that deserve it, we have turbos something not every car has certainly not just your stereotypical pos you see on the roads so often its a distinctive sound but it doesn't make it sound bad. just my $.02

[Longfist86]

not mine...

[Charlescrs6]

Guys are all talking about me haha... yeah but nick and I were dead even I would say. I'm auto he's 5 speed, and I had a small jump on him and only beat him by 1/2 a car so it's pretty much dead even with a stock 3.0 I'd say.
