Default Question: I have K04s with an APR v5.0 stage I chip, should I go get the stage II+ program put on?
I have piggie pipes and someone mentioned how that might be an issue with the relocated O2 sensor. Just wondering what the general consensus is. I don't want to drive 1hr45mins round trip for nothing.

thanks,
Naptown

Why are you running K03 software with K04s?

I know if my turbo's blow, I might run K04's with v5.0. K04's are built like a tank - no?

Default Because I could not afford a full stage III kit. So I did what I could afford. The car runs fine..
its just not as fast as it could be...i'm only running 16psi of boost.

I guess you "can" run 13s or blow your motor too then.

Care to explain how running K04s with K03 software is going to blow my motor?

I think the only issue is that it may throw a CEL. But no real problems that I know of. Ask Mark P.
