Do you plan on partnering up with any of the tuning options available to have something specific available for stage 3?

What is the Target WHP for stage II?
I am assuming that 550 HP figures are at the crank, so are we talking about 470WHP with Meth or Race gas?

I hope GIAC can be used with these!!!

Would we need supporting internals to handle this power or the stock clutch and Manual Transmission can handle these numbers?

thank you

I am pretty sure these will be good for 30-50whp over stock turbos and hopefully be able to hold boost much better in the higher RPMS so the avg HP will be the significant improvement over OEM

The stage 3 will work with any competent tune since they plan on using the stock or forge actuators.

True, although getting a custom map to work with these will be easier for some tunes than others

Reflash the DME like Vishnu did....
Or is that when they switched it out for an N20 DME.

Either way, there is already a solution to this.

You just need a different sensor, not a whole new DME, to run higher boost. The reflash on the other hand is mainly to remove the fuel ceiling. Both will be necessary to really push the stage 3 the way it should be pushed.

They use an AEM MAP sensor, but I don't know how they integrated it with the procede or if they would be willing to sell something that would work outside of their single turbo kit.

Every time I consider selling the 335 a thread like this pops up. Looks like I should hold onto it a while longer - N54 tuning is getting exciting!!

Using an aftermarket MAP sensor isn't' an issue with Cobb or PROcede, Cobb has a table that functions as a MAP scaler that allows you to adjust for aftermarket sensors and i'm assuming PROcede works the same way using a different input.

These turbos should all fit just fine, stage 3 though I'm not too sure about just yet

I did also on BB I'm sure the details and cost and such is on hold until testing is complete.
