What about fuel management i figured that if the car needs it the kit should have it since it is a KIT now the stage 3 comes with a bigger fuel pump and all that good stuff will i need that for a stage 2? Lastly what else will i need in order to get it running right..i already know you need your computer reprogrammed,at least 93 octane gas and etc...I know some of you are thinking that you shouldn't do this to your cavy but i want to get the the turbo in before the first snow in PA and get the pistons rods and what not by spring early summer

***take a look at if to see what's there and i what i need i think it is a good deal and a nice looking set***

thanks for everyone's responce..oh yea im trying to kick my friends GTIs ass cuz he bought is like that and thinks he's the shit
I don't know much about turbocharging. But what ive learned from my question about my turbo is your definatly going to need bigger Fuel Injectors and bigger Fuel Pump. Also you need at least 2.5" Piping. However 3" is more ideal.
