They should throw us something to nibble on.... at least if we heard something from them about the stage 2. SOMETHING... JUST SOMETHING. Something that would peak our interest. Some pics. Some OFFICIAL updates. Are they Keeping MIAPLAYA in the dark as well? Or are they telling him to keep his mouth shut. Huh Rob? Eh? Tough guy!

We want something. Shame on TN. Why should we wait for the TN stage 2. They're not giving us any reason to wait. Greddy is sounding sweeeeeeet. Lets get a GB going on the Greddy TT. Somebody..... give us a reason to wait.

Where are our forum sponsors when we need them! I need instant gratification TN. Damn it!

I AGREEEE totally, they say wait wait wait. But I mean come on if your not gonna give us some info,your making us want to buy another kit. ITS been forever already and nothing. Lol I find it funny that you and I are at the exact same stage with our motors and mods except you have headers. GIVE US SOMETHING PLZZZ TN lol PLZ

 

LOL!!! Jet don't think you are the only person waiting for Stage 2. I want it too dammit!!! But at the same time I prefer to let Turbonetics do their proper R&D before they release it. Official update is something like this.

Stage 2 (upgrade kit)will most likely include:

Turbonetics GTK turbo
Turbonetics Racegate (new design)
Motron 630cc injectors
Fuel Return System
Unichip Q with flux display
-5 map ability with included 5 map switch
-inluded closed loop boost control
-included Bluetooth access with 6 channel datalogging
-ability to control water injection or intercooler sprayer
Water Injection System (Z/G specific kit. Customer made for our cars)
Potentially larger Spearco FMIC


Thats what I have for now. Thats the upgrade kit of course. If this was a complete kit there would be everything else as well needed for install.

 

oh damn.. thats going to be hefty.. =o.. i hope they have lik e a stage 2.1 2.2 upgrade etc..

not sure if i can spent another.. cost of a turbo kit just to upgrade.

 

Crikey.....

So there will be no upgrades to the piping?

I'm awaiting final word on that. I can tell you three things that may give you some inisight.

(1) The redesigned Racegate will bolt to the Evolution flange
(2) The GT-K turbos have a T3 input flange as one of the configurations
(3) The larger intercooler has been test fitted on their G35 and looks like it will fit with minor modifications

That should at least give you a clue of the intended path. As for pics I have some of the GT-K turbo but not the Racegate or intercooler right now.

GT-K turbo:

 

What if I'm looking for 500whp. Would the turbo, wg, injectors and intercooler get me there? These parts alone would likely be over $3300 with install. WOW! I'm getting dizzy.



wg $500
Intercooler $1000
Turbo $1300
injectors $500

The goal of Stage 2 has always been 550 RWHP and 550 ft/lb so yeah it should get you there and more.

 

The big concern is those with the Stage 1 we believe Turbonetice should show some buyers loyalty or something. Half off with the turn in of the stage 1 parts or something. Something would be better than nothing. Everyone is getting anxious and wanting to here some more than wait. But I guess that is all we can do.

 

Yeah come on Turbonetics.... Throw us a freakin' bone here.

 

And when you guys turn in your old parts, they could be sold to those of us who cant afford FI of any kind (Stage Broke A$$).

 

LOL good one.

 

Well as I've said before there will be an uprade price for those with the Stage 1.

 

With Winter coming it sure would be nice to hear some official news with details, dates and costs. I'm trying to plan my winter mods and time is running out.

 

And I'm trying to get you guys all the info I can. But I can't give you final info when the R&D guys are still working on it. And until they are done I can't get a price either...

 

LOL "www.sshh.com"

 

Can you guys stop asking about this TN update please???? I'm trying to forget about it so the waiting time seems to goes by faster. Everyday I'm in FI forum and these kind of threads make me think about the long waiting again ARGGGG!!!

 

They've already said you'll hear more after SEMA. They've got a lot of things going on in preparation for it.

I'll be there with my DSLR to get you all the pics I can get.

 

Basically every TN owner has the Alberto/Forged Performance thread on the brain! lol, that upgrade kit has gotta to be sweet. Im doing everything i can not to break!!!

 

Thats understanable. And don't think we aren't with you. Heck the General Manager of Turbonetics owns the test car and you better believe he wants to drive his car. But the R&D team won't release anything even his car to him until they are 100% done with it. As I've said I'd rather wait personally to make sure they have done all the R&D they can. I'd rather it be perfect then have it now.
