FishWick 21 Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 I've had the old stage 2 charger setup from NSRacing on my Corrado VR for 2000 miles now and thought I'd give some feedback.Well in short, it's flipping mental. Strong torque all the way through and it goes ballistic at 3500rpm, thanks to my shorter final drive. I love it !lol The charger kit just takes the VR to another level, perfect idle, creamy acceleration and mind blowing performance. 232bhp per tonne I make it, which is 32 more than the current 997 Porsche carrera Speaking of 997s, I was playing with one tonight during a 158 mile journey, which is where the 13mpg comes from, I used 12 gallons of fuel, LOL! Worth it.Having done the schrick route, I'd say don't bother, just get a charger instead and learn what the VR is really capable of 8)....and that's before we even look at water injection, intercooling, smaller pulleys etc etc......

purple highline monster 0 Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 sounds mean! just hope they sort the fuel situation if your gonna use it all! Link to post Share on other sites
FishWick 21 Posted September 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 Yeah, on that score Stealth have got a Walbro pump waiting for me. I don't think the standard pump has enough balls at the top end. And because the injector duty cycle is shorter, the MFA thinks I'm doing 40mpg! Half that more like! Link to post Share on other sites

xyber 1 Posted December 9, 2008 Report Share Posted December 9, 2008 last time I was up there he'd sussed out a few new tricks, when mine is on vag-com now the ecu component code has been changed toMARC VRSC 295He said he can also now re-prog it for the MFA to show correct MPG for the upgraded injectors(or as accurate as it can be haha) as it is way out with red tops as that part of the ECU still thinks its on OE injectors, so when the red tops are wound right back, the ECU works out the MPG based on its original settings but alot lower duty and thinks its using very little fuel, but It was getting late in the day and I had a 6hr drive home and they wanted to get off so I didnt get it done Link to post Share on other sites
