I have had a custom map running 200bhp on 2wd bfb 1.8t. I just enquired about a stage 2 and he said I need Decat and uprated intercooler I would also consider swapping the turbo.
Is this correct?

Stage 2 remap
- Thread starter vwgtiking
- Start date
By definition what is all the different stages, everyone has different definitions
For me (by no means right)
Stage 1 is a generic map, better performance to stock ready to load in to any car
Stage 2 is a tweaked generic map ie custom to the car this could be with no mods but probably better to have air filter and exhaust upgrades
Stage 3 is a custom map taking full advantage of intercoolers and any other mods

Sounds about right, from what i see of "stages"
Stage 1 = stock car with remap
Stage 2 = bolt on parts, usually larger intercooler and breather mods such as a turbo back exhaust and induction kit, for which the car can use a more "aggresive" map tailored to the mods ie higher boost, timing advanced etc.
Stage 3 = usually most tuners i see quote "stage 3" usually involves more major work such as larger turbocharger, fuel pumps etc...

Stage 2 means very little. It's a marketing term at best.
If you want more power, you add hardware to get you the extra airflow and then have it calibrated to suit.
