I guess there is some competition on the market now. I'll be checking out your stuff now too SpeedMafia. Damn there is a lot of options coming out lately for forced induction upgrades.
I emailed Hahn this week and they were actually on the dyno as I got my response. If they were happy with their tune and numbers being produced, they said once again there would be a release by the end of the week. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it actually happens this week as I'm impatient to know as well.

I'm an Explosive Ordnance Disposal Tech (Bomb Squad) in the Air Force. We did some Combat Skills Training there that was useless to us as EOD techs. We were definitely at lot further ahead in training and knowledge than the Army provided because of our careerfield's qualifications needless to say. The Combat Lifesaver course was worth it's weight in gold though, as it unfortunately had to be used by my fellow techs to save a couple lives in the AOR.

My guess is right in the range crossed over stated around 320-350whp. It's going to have to hit those numbers to sell.
XenSS06, everybody's car is different. I already blew the headgasket with just GM Stage 2, and others have broke with various tune and puley sizes. It's a gamble at this point. It really comes down to how well the car is tuned is my firm belief.

they say it will be able to but not to its full potential tho, also i wouldnt risk it.
to run the setup properly it would take all traction mods, engine mount, tranny mounts etc.
and supporting mods would be at least a head gasket to be safe with some good head studs and see where you sit from there, id say those and some other small mods will be needed to run it safely. oh and a full 3" exhaust would definately be needed as well.

I'm prepped already for whatever decision I do make. I'm just awaiting numbers from the companies making the kits. I'll have to sell my Corsa though for a full 3" exhaust, but the turbo quieting down the exhaust will be more than welcome if I got this route.

i wouldnt invest in the stage 2 kit if you are planning to go with twincharge in the future, just save and go twincharge cause you cant run stage 2 with the twincharge...different pully,bigger injectors,different tune so its a waste.
