Just installed AR DPs and Cobb Stage 2... Questions.
Hey all, I installed my downpipes tonight and upgraded to Stage 2 on the Accessport. Everything seems to be working well, but I was curious to see if others are notices and weird release from boost. Like in 3rd gear, I jump on it and take it to maybe 4 or 5k and I let off abruptly and it seems to want to hold on for a millisecond, not like the old ones. I'm positive the clamps are where they belong and I'm not noticing a lack of boost. (As if the wastegates arms are hitting the clamps.) It just feels different. A tad faster, but just different. Any thoughts? Or is this how these things run with no restrictions?

On second drive, it seems better. I might have just been overreacting. The thing's a beast! I love it. I'll be making videos for it soon enough. The install was simple as well. Took about two hours with a lift. The sound is intoxicating. Highly recommended and thanks to Alan at **********s, as always!

Are you running the stage 2 map that requires the intercooler (didnt see an IC in your sig)? That's what I'm running, it's amazing!

Just stage 2. I did it myself with a buddy helping. A lift isn't a must, but it sure helps. It's not difficult. The hardest part was dealing with the clamps on the turbos. Have a good pry bar to pop those off. They are catless.
