Default pnp question

i'm considering getting some parts pnped as part of a stage 2 upgrade (uppipe, downpipe, cbe). the parts i'm thinking about getting pnped are the turbo and the exhaust and intake manifolds. also, a new exhaust manifold crosspipe. i'm considering the tgv delete as well if i'm going to have those other parts off.

will doing any of this require more upgrades? i want to keep things a somewhat simple and not have things snowball where i need more upgrades that need additional upgrades, and so on. i don't have any plans in the future for a bigger turbo or anything like that. i just want to take what i have and improve it a bit.

the car is my daily driver and i have no plans for autox or tracking it.

you wont need any parts but a tune will be a good idea, if you go with grimmspeed and P&P your stuff everyhting will be the same jsut with faster spool. but a tune will be the best

Don't bother with the intake manifold

StageII with no intentions of a turbo swap - the $$ is better spent elsewhere

I have Grimmspeeds PnP TD04 and exhaust manifolds with x-pipe, with a pro-tune I'm hitting 19psi by 2800rpms....yup, I would say it's worth it!
