Stage 2

I just got a 2011 Sti hatch not too long ago. Bought a Crawford performance dp and axleback along with an aem cai and a cobb tuner. Looking to get it professionally tuned at gst Motorsports next weekend but wondering what else I can add on there for power with about 700 bucks? I don't want to buy something that will outperform other parts though and cause me to spend more money. A friend told me injectors and a fuel pump. What do you guys think???

injectors and a fuel pump will definitely help with the tune and maybe a turbo inlet also?

Please post some numbers after all is said and done, I love the '11 but the numbers don't look to impressive ( I was told it was due to detuning) so I'm very interested

i need to find out what size injectors i'll be needing. i plan on having a 91 and 100 octane map, as well as a E85 map. i'll definitely post the results. honestly, i feel like i need to keep the car in sport sharp for me to really enjoy driving it like i should. when i casually get on it (up to 5k) in intelligent drive it just feels like a WRX to me, IMO.

i plan on doing all the suspension after i get this protune. should be satisfied with the power for a while, at least till all my suspension mods are complete. then moving on to the interior with some bride buckets and what not. I NEED TO MAKE MORE MONEY SOMEHOW! hahah, i've been addicted to parts ever since i got this thing! what about a Perrin header, someone else told me to get that with the extra cash?

W/ the Perrin header you'll spend all the money into that one mod. Go with the injectors, fuel pump, and manual boost controller and get tuned on e85. You'll make at least 300whp and lots of torque!

^^^What LOL VTEC said.
I'm a very simple stage 2. Catted turbo back exhaust, crosspipe, MBC, 850cc injectors, Walbro fuel pump, SPT intake and a E85 tune and dyno'd at 335whp 400wtq

Isn't a standard stage 2 just a TBE + tune? Sounds complex

Just talk to mike. See what he wants you to get and let him know where you want to be. He will put together a nice mod list for your budget.

I would stay with EBC so the boost can be corrected by the ECU for weather change, and so the ECU can cut back on boost if for something else goes wrong.
