These are my actual results on 93 oct.
OEM- K&N filter
Stage 1- K&N filter
Stage 2- K&N filter, HPS intake tube and SPOWER catted downpipe
If you can read the dyno graph you will see that even though peak torque on the OEM tune was higher the Stage 1 still made more torque throughout the powerband and peak horsepower was greatly improved. With the addition of the down pipe in Stage 2 it allowed both horsepower and torque to increase significantly.
Stage 2 requires an upgraded down-pipe.

No, this is just how the dyno was done, it was just the way the guy who ran the car applied the gas pedal. also those graphs are not 100% accurate the tq needs to be scaled differently because the graph is showing over 250wtq and the stats say 214, so one of them is off and the scale for the whp is off because this shows the stage 2 at almost 250whp and the stock over 200whp and 250wtq. This dyno graph needs its information fixed and cleared up.

HI,<br />For a reliable compare between Stock and Stage1, at the same Rpm with graphs optimised. It is important to compare the same things.

My car peaked more torque with the stock tune at 3300rpm, but the Stage 1 overpowered after that. It definitely varies by the car, also when the car was dyno’d the WOT was done at different starting points.

To my knowledge the intercooler has its own pump, meaning that we have two pumps but am not 100% sure

The other gripe I have with the car is the "lazy" way it shifts down and this is most apparent when I take a corner and then get on the gas. I am left with a significant interval before it decides to pick a lower gear and then build up power to push you on again. Again, I wonder if this is the engine, the tranny or some very conservative form of traction control at work... Does the Stage 1 tune with the TCU mod help in that sort of situation?

Agree that it remain a mistake between the graph and the text. In fact if your looking to the cross color you will note that Stage 1 for torque is green instead of yellow as for Power.
Confirm Stage1 give 36.899 Kgm and 206.08 PS at 4000Tmn.
I join an other graph wich is more significatif except that results (cross) are not at the same rpm for torque and power.
Must point out that TCU tune help in the gear choice particularly whether you are in Sport position and is much better in manual mode.
