Those Rear Intake Clips are a great feature, I have had my rear intake tube slip off, causing a vacuum leak. My tech had to take a ton of stuff apart just to get to it!

Could someone explain how the Vargas Stage 2 Turbos are different from the RB turbos?

Is that taboo? I looked at the Vargas website and they seem to be similar to the RBs. I was wondering exactly how similar.

keep in mind my car is an XI so there will be some more drivetrain loss. Honestly i'd be very happy with anything near 470-480whp without dangerously pushing anything

but yeah just take a gander at RB results, in theory these should be very similar. we'll know soon enough either way

They're so pretty, I'm jealous lol. Must be exciting, can't wait to see the numbers. That'll confirm my plans for Spring =).

JP,

What is your best guess as to results with FBO, those stage 2 turbos and 91/93 octane, no meth?

Interested to know how it compares to the Stage 3, 91 octane, 570whp

there's no point in comparing, stage 3 is infinitely better. the stage 2's should be very similar to what has been done with RB's
