Stage 3 installed

[srt4turbo2004]

All I have to say is WOW. If your thinking of putting out the money for stage 3 all I can tell you is its worth every penny. I'm so happy I went this route with my ride. Mopar or no car. Now I just have to find some race gas and get to a dyno.

100 mile break in...then give it hell. Welcome to the S3 owners group.

About time you put that on lol

According to the installation instructions, it is recommended that you break in the new turbo; avoid "spirited" driving for the first 100 miles. After that, give it hell.

Yeah well I wanted to get close to paying it off in case something breaks so its not laid up forever being unable to drive it. Don't worry I was iching to get it on for sure but wanted to also enjoy stage 2.

See this way when I get into my car I get enjoyment out of it if I gradually do things to it. I will wait till next summer then get a new intercooler and cold air intake. Then next summer I will have something new again.

Must have Stage 3.......

That way we can fend off all the new EVO X's, 135/335i's,
tuned MS3's, STi's & the upcoming not so Slobalt Turbo's....

I never "broke" it in. I broke it in like I intended to drive it. Congrats, I've loved every second of having stage 3.

I have Stage 3 installed since last year and really liked it up to now.

This year, I installed a MPx 62m throttle body, an AGP S3 WGA, a PTP DF FMIC, and did a couple of other mods. The car's performance is better than a stock S3 now. The car is perfect like this; it should have been like this in it's stock form.

Now, I'm testing a CoolingMist SRT-4 S3 HOM W/I kit since last week, and I succeeded in holding HOM in 3rd and 4th gears. All I can say is wow!

The car's not going to beat a 50 trim car for sure, but I think it's waayyy enough for a street car.
