M2 performance stage 3 question.

Are "m2 performance" telling the truth when they say that u get 315 RWHP from their stage 3 upgrade kit?

Will i need bigger injectors?

You can make 315 rwhp without needing larger secondary injectors.

The M2 stage three will put you at/around 315 rwhp if the rest of the car is working properly.

thats sounds sweet

Do u have any suggestion on a good IC to put in?

Im thinking of modding my car to around 300 RWHP and if M2 only have those upgrades i will go with those to.

I can't make up my mind about what ECU i should have either. One choice is to buy a simpler and cheaper like Apexi's or someone elses similar ecu, or i go all the way and buy a really expensive one from like Autronics. Im gonna go single only i dont have the money this year so i'll save it to the next or maybe i even wait two years for that. Anyways is the Apexi power FC good for around 450 HP? and wich one is best for the engine, tuning wise?

If you are planning on going single next year, I personally would just wait and do all the upgrades for the single turbo at that time. No since in wasting your money now for stuff you'll eventually probably need to try and sell or not use.

I Dynoed at 286 with stage 2 the added IC so I think im probably around 305-310, and I have low compression.

thats wny im gonna try to buy stuff that i can use later on aswell.

I wont mod my car this winter if i can't find the stuff i want or that i won't have a budget for it.

but i know if i go single and make much power i will get a worse handling car on a track and i plan on building my car for the track. I wish i could keep the sequentials for that but i wanna be on the most reliable side i can.

i had an m2 stage 3 and i only got 292, this was with a motor with only 30k miles, and turbos with only 28k...

the thing with 315rwhp is they don't tell you how much boost they are running etc... I'm sure if I had a boost controller then and turned up the boost I could hit 315 easily, but with only the stage 3 mods, I didn't get it
