VT2 UPGRADE KIT arrived!!!

[Beedub]

the parts finally came in for my vt2 upgrade kit, my vt1 has been awesome, but now i want more, Ess kit is REALLY nice, cant wait to see my engine bay with the extra parts!!! :-)













cant wait to get this added to my stage 1 unit......... 500hp, here we come!!

[ZStig]

Could you weigh all that extra stuff for us?

[Beedub]

hi roffle, it weighted in @ 15KG.

The intercooler pipework in crackle black is INSANELY light, ess re made the pipework in lightweight ali to save alot of weight, literally cant wait to get this all installed :-)

[ZStig]

33lbs? not too bad. I think the stage 1 kit is ~20lbs. So its a net gain of about 53lbs over stock

[Beedub]

yea not to bad at all, ive lost Alot weight with my Rpis, wheels, leightweight battery so i feel i can afford the weight gain, when i drop my stock seats for the carbon shells ill really still be well under.........

The parts are pure sex, i cant wait to see it all pieced together on the car :-)

[johanness]

Looks like great quality gear too. JEALOUSY is setting in!

Can't wait to see your system installed

[Beedub]

ill promise to bring you all the pics the other s/c owners dont.... im a photo freak.....

[txz4]

is the remote a boost controller?!

[Thisisdudewhoru]

Sc dont have boost controllers...is that oil cooler a replacement for the stock oil cooler or is it for the oil in the sc unit?

[Beedub]

Lol the remote is for satalite tv!!! That made me smile...

The oil cooler is replacing the stock unit with this larger unit..... Its massive!!

the kit looks GOOD!!!

i also picked up the 3d design gauge pod.... insanely expensive for a gauge pod but WOW the quality is insane, they are designed for stack gauges and the look is perfect, really looking forward to being able to SEE what going on with my motor.

here you go bro.... make sure you sitting down when you get the price......lol

the 3d design piece is soooo perfect its worth the money, quality oouuzzes from this part, everything down to the mounting tabs are perfect, if you wait a week ill show you my install, they are designed to go with stack prfessional gauges, the way the bezels on both items work together is nothing short of something id expect to see in a top end ferrari or something, it really goes look class, unfortunatly the stack pro stepper gauges are probably the most expensive gauges out their but i went for it anyway.....

i went with oil pressure, boost, AFR wideband..... Realy cool features with these gauges :-) google them :-)

cfrine 88 you MUST get a decent gauge setup in your motor, your running FI on a motor never designed so we CAN save our motors if we pre-empt an issue, something a wideband will show you almost instantly, by lean / rich conditions.

This thread is just what i've been looking for!

Installed the VT1 kit a week ago but im not overwhelmed by its power. Seriously considering upgrading to the VT2 but its hard to find good information on the REAL power and feel of the kit. So could you PLEASE share all your thoughts about the difference between VT1 and VT2?

Pretty prretty please? :P

[Beedub]

addeg for me the vt1 has been great in my colder climate it really shows great performance gains, however once the heat soak sets in the car starts to feel really sluggish....... i get my vt2 installed coming monday, i will provide a proper indepth review for you all, as ive had vt1 for a year im in a grat possition to tell you as it is........honestly the intercooler was the main reason for my upgrade.... everything else is just a bonus :-)

I live in Sweden so the heat shouldnt be an issue at this time Maybe there is something wrong with my setup. Will perform a dynorun soon, then i'll know!

Either way, not gonna steal your thread! Really looking forward for your updates. Good luck with the install!
