NicJ Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Think I'll just go stage 2 then. I'd like to go stage 3 but not wanting to fork out thousands for a new turbo, it'll be good though when it's released Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil 87 Posted August 15, 2014 Author Share Posted August 15, 2014 Personally I'd be worried about going for such powerful upgrades unless they do something to the gearbox, because I heard Ford were worried about the amount of torque going through the gearbox with the Mountune stage 2. So unless the gearbox is upgraded too, basically Ford are saying it won't last as long as the 3 year warranty lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicJ Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Hopefully they'll release some more info on it soon so I can make some final decisions. Until then I'll just get my mountune springs and triple r fitted Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neil1jnr Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I know sounds so tempting. Christmas present to myself haha. They releasing the stage 3 this year as well Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Stage 3 will require a larger turbocharger, the limits I've heard are 240bhp and 270lbs ft with the standard turbo.

NicJ Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 I'm not going to go past stage 2 cause of cost involved with new turbo, bigger brakes etc etc be nice to see the figures revo will produce though Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky2013 Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 In all honesty, I'd go bigger brakes with stage 2, it is recommended especially if your are running 240 bhp , even slightly less Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicJ Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Fair point I'll look into it, just got to watch pennies for a bit as I've got two holidays booked aha. Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nath.mk7.st Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Just get a new aerial and that creates an extra 3bhp. I'm calling it stage 1.5.

nath.mk7.st Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Everything perfect with it. Apparently someone said DAB has a separate one hidden in roof. But no works well. It's just a £3 job off eBay not the rich brook one that was 15quid I think Sent from my Nokia 3310 using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexp999 Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Does look a bit like someone has got a pair of cutters to the standard aerial imo.... Each to their own though :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NicJ Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Personally not a fan of the really short ones. I only use my DAB never switched to fm never did in my metal either Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordanch Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Also spoken to SCC. No labour charges for having a map done. This has really tempted myself to get revo stage 1, especially with them offering 20% discount.. It's either that, or wait towards christmas and treat myself then, cause I'm sure they'll have an offer in December too :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicJ Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Revo definitely said they will have discounts at Christmas so i'm sure SCC will Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
