Stage II is the best thing that ever happened to the ss/sc. I love it and it's worth every penny. I have to say... I love those highway on-ramps. We need more dyno sheets w/stage 2. I saw one that said 250whp. Not bad. Can someone do the math and figure out what the motor is putting out for hp? Thanks!!

 

I dynoed mine on a mustang dyno. The sheet is posted along with another from a dyno jet.

Cant remember where tho. I got 222hp and 194tq. Safe to say the engine cranks out atleast 250hp 215tq.

 

Yeah but look at this stage 2 dyno on a dyno-jet and that's WHP.

It dosent incorporate drag. My numbers do. But realistically on the track, cars tend to pull harder because of the added airflow the car is pushing compared to a big fan that is just not comparable. Then again, I was hoping for bigger number. That same post second page has my dyno sheet.

 

Yeah I know about the mustang dynos. What kind of hp is the motor putting out if you have 250whp? I don't know the math equation.

 

10-15% drivetrain loss so add 25-35 more hp for FW hp

 

I love my stage 2 kit.

totaly money well spent!

later

 

Stage 2 is sweet, no complaints at all!

 

No, the CEL has already came back on for several members.

 

Unfortuately... :'(

My dealership said they didnt and still dont have stage 2 in stock and cant be ordered until teh 28th. They did have stage 1 in stock, so they ordered that and I got it installed. I called yesterday and they said they can order the stage 2 only for 375. So

475 + 375 = 850 for stage 1 and 2 :'( Ive seen both kits together on ebay for 650, so yea it does kinda suck butt....

Thats what I get for being impatient....

 

The question is... Could you drive it without?

 

stage 2 on order here . dealer said its backordered. slightly over 800 bucks installed. 637 for just the parts.

 

Nope...

 

Like who... Mine hasn't come back at all

 

I will be purchasing soon, but overall I am hearing nothing but good things, what was the biggest difference you felt when you drove it after it was installed? Was it like "ok I can fellt it pull a little more" or was it " holy $hit is this my car? "

 

When I stepped on the gas pulling out of the dealership my SC started to whine right away. My boost reads 115kpa instead of 80.. It just dosent hesitate anymore.

 

I was like holy **** this is my car after it started pulling hard after 2700rpms and instantly jumping to 15psi and staying there as i kept my foot on the gas. The other night this 2003-2004 Mustang GT was playing with me so i played back and we both hit the gas and i was pulling on him and he let off

 

Damn woody you shoulda called me. I got mine for $640 from city chevrolet. Just installed stage one and the Ingalls engine torqe dampner. Im not even gonna use my stage 2 pulley because my 3.0 and 2.8 inch modular pulley system from pulley boys just arrived today. The torque dampner works wonders and the 7k redline is ****** nuts.

 

Cant wait to get it dynoed

 

nice.....will be ordering mine on Saturday.

 

Just got mine today and it totally gave the car a boost, it's worth it just for the redline and the much improved 1 - 2 shift.

 

I have an hour to wait before I go pick my kit up at the post office, then get it installed next week.......or tomorrow if I can LOL. Cannot wait!!!!!!

 

just got my stage 2 installed today! i love it, thought to be honest i got my hopes up for a much better low end torque response and its not the same as i dreamed about but the stage 2 over all is a very good purchase! even though my gf bought it for me for a graduation present. yeah i'm lucky. but it sucks because i didnt get to enjoy it all day, it has been raining too much.

 

I love my stage 2. Best bang for the buck!

With the K & N typhoon the SC is soo damn loud makes people turn around

and look.. lol
