1) Like mentioned in my last post, I did get a BMC airfilter in stock location. Also, the air channel has been cut to let in the cold air from outside- just like the euro spec air channel. Saved some money there.

Just wanted to ask - did you change the downpipe too after adding the BMC filter?

Hi,

I did source the Brake pads from GT tunerz, Gurgaon. And the disk from Auto Kannan. I did not like the service of Kannan guys, have to follow up multiple times for updates. I think German Cart can help you with both the items. Just check with him.

Thank you! I am thinking of getting a clear coat on top to make it a little shinny. Right now, it matte bronze.

No, I did not. I am thinking of getting those by next year with a stage 2 map on top of that. Let's see.

But the difference between the stage 1 and 2 is very little, around 15HP, but then stage 2 will allow you to have power in the top RPMs as compared to the surge in the initial RPMs, but the gains are pretty small. Plus it may require an intercooler upgrade as well, and which does not come without the hassle, as there is not much options of bolt on fitments of intercooler for the Rapid. Plus ideally one needs to upgrade the intercooler when you are upgrading the turbo, as there are other numericals like volume and all involved in it.

Great build, please log the EGTs on the third gear, if you have the access to a VCDS cable. This will allow you to have a clear picture of what the turbo is doing in general.

Happy Motoring!
