Is 390 realistic for stage 1 when other tuners need hardware mods to get over 380?
Even DMS is only about 375 for stage 1 I believe?
But I supposed a lot of it is down to difference is calculated flywheel power, if we dealt in wheel-power it would be a bit more accurate...

Good to talk this through I must say.
From what I can tell - the Evolve map is like most others in that it lands around 380+ although from what I can also tell, Evolve aim quite high without being irresponsible and that is why I like them.
The Stage 3 was RR'ed on their Dyno at something like 430 recently, I believe... there was a thread on the Technical section and if I had a mastery of two tabs at once, I would find it for you!!!!
I am hoping to add an exhaust and oil cooler to the Stage 3 (I guess making it a Stage 4) and along with the Quaiffe Diff, I am hoping I can spend the whole day with Imran or as much as he will allow working towards a very safe and driveable figure...
I may, perhaps overexaggerate the Stage 3/4 figure to justify in my own mind the cost I will incur to move from Stage 1 to 4 because the £3000 for Stage 3 doesn't include the exhaust which will inevitably sting me for another £1000 on top.
So don't take my figures as red mate, wait and see what the Dyno says but I am definately hoping for a decent figure.
As I have discussed with Tony before, I may be a bit of a Dick, but I am primarily after a car which will perform consistently well. The 'Ring will test me to my limits and I certainly don't want to die, nor do I want to blow the wheels off hence why I want the uprated Oil Cooler.
The next big decision is do I go for an uprated cooler, or a second unit? The second unit is bloody £900 more fitted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
