Get used to it, the thirst for more power never ends unfortunately. A few things I've learned that I can share
- catless downpipe for sure. Required anyways for stage 2.
- b58tu fuel pump if your sticking with stock turbo, dorch stage 2 for upgraded turbo. I thought I'd stay stock turbo but then again, the thirst for more power kicked in and I'm ready for a Vargas GC. I'll be limited with the b58tu so now I need dorch stage 2.
- custom tune, ots maps are great but you will want to max out power. A quality custom tune will get you max power within safe limits.
- spark plugs gapped to .022 anywhere stage 2 or stage 2+, 0.20 for upgraded turbos
- if you have ethanol near by, e85 mixes make a big difference. Just started using it recently, e85 is a hell of a drug
