[ghsnu]

Just saw this.

Original HP+stage 2=about 622
Stage 2+stage 3=619

lol? Ether a fail or it's just there...ether way I want my 3 HP back! (jk)

i have an off-topic question: can u upgrade engine at all for GT concept??
as i can for i-Mev & Prius (havent tried Tesla...). but i know that GT Concept car is a pure fuel cell powered car so i wonder. that 2000+nm torque intrigues me as well.

Bahahaha loved the title man. Can't help you though I have no idea!

Interesting ... Does it at least increase power/torque at lower engine speeds ?

3 peak horsepower on a 600+ peak horsepower car is completely insignificant, but if it increases mid-range output and throttle response, it may very well be worth it.

It's not all about HP

Stage 3 gives optimised performance when you are racing at high rpm's whereas stage 2 gives best performance in mid-ranges rpm's.

So you could buy both and change between each one depending on the characteristics of the track your going to race on.

Hope that helped?

With a car as powerful as the citroen GT, you will be racing in the high end rpm ranges a lot. So always stage 3 is the better choice unless you're racing... cote de azur ?

I always say: Stage 3 for the bhp, stage 2 for the torque.

I often find that the cars I drive are just as fast, if not faster with a stage 2 turbo, as they are with a stage 3. 👍

Maybe it makes the torque/power curves smoother, maybe it makes more torque.

This is something the tuning shop needs come to think of it; it should display the torque graph so you can see what horsepower modification does what.

This.

Most of my modded cars run better on stage 2 than stage 3. Like Hig-GT said, it's not all about HP.

I don't think I've put the biggest turbo on any cars without fitting a smaller one after. For alot of cars the biggest one only works if it's a fast revving thing anyway.

Often in GT3/4 HP decrease when you instaled stage 3 with turbo.

 

[jimbogl]

why is everyone talking turbo's???? he said engine upgrade.

 

[LaLinea555]

Stege 3 ENGINE upgrade on a engine WITH turbo

Hahah, I just noticed this.

 

[kurenai1987]

I posted about this some time back.

Its really strange

Someone get the same car and take a picture of the stage 2 and stage 3 torque curves.
