Stage 2 Tune
We look at the best mods to take your car tuning project to stage 2, and discuss the best mods for stage two upgrades. With most people asking about mods to make the most power we thought we would look at what it takes to fully release your cars potential and dissect the pros and cons of stage 2 mods.
Pistons CrankshaftsWhen an engine is nicely balanced you can raise the redline, and this is where the peak power lies. If you are planning forced induction upgrades then making sure the bottom end of the engine is as strong as possible is a major consideration.
Anti lag systemsWe look at Anti lag systems in cars and how these keep the turbo spinning ready to provide boost from low RPM speeds. When you lift off the throttle the engine power cuts and the turbo starts to spool down.
From this low spool state there is a delay while the turbo spins up again before it can provide any useful boost. We discuss the advantages and disadvantages of ALS and look at alternative options.
Diesel Tuning for maximum power and torqueFrom a diesel perspective, anything that isn’t turbocharged is a waste of time from a tuning point of view. Similarly, anything that isn’t using electronically managed direct injection is a pointless tuning proposal so we are somewhat limited to modern Turbo Diesels.
Get rid of those two ointment bound flies and things get more interesting
