re 225 stage III. They say they're working on it. They expect to have it available in 30-90 days. HP quotes are contradictory: Initially he said 300. Then "impressive". When I commented that 300 is not impressive when the 180 kit is already getting about 290 he said it would be closer to the figures Motopersona (the local apr shop) anticipates. That would be about 400.

Default Lies and BS>. lies and BS.. there is no turbo kit... there is no anything with them....

Search for old posts from 2 years ago with the same info.

Sounds like they used to be in used car sales. "Yeah 300 HP".. "Well that's not enough".. "How about 400?"

Default Go with Revo and smile all the way down the road...

I love mine, even though I do not have it in performance mode that often (I'm getting 31+ mpg on the highway and this is my daily driver). Simple to change over, no hassles or replacing parts. Just my 2 cents worth.

Default Once they do come out expect a 3 month wait...

I ordered my Stage 3 in May and it didn't come in until September. Whenever I called to check on it I was told... 2 weeks. All in all I must say that it was worth it because the car is more drivable than my MTM stage 1. As Marcus and others will attest the product is engineered well within the tolerances of the engine. It was worth every penny as my almost 4 year old car has a new lease on life.

Not necessarily, different internals and lower compression in the 225.
