#11152, "What makes stage 1 into stage2?"




          

I know its the higher boost, but how do you get this? Is it a whole different turbo? Or a different guage setting thing? Or the intercooler? If I want to get my star stage 1 turbo turning the boost a stage 2 turns, what do I need?

I got banned for being a constant tard.

The only difference form stage I TO II is an intercooler.
The intercooler allwos you to run higher boost cause it cools the air.

So there isnt some boost dial on a stage 1 that stops at 5psi? Im saying what stops a stage 1 personf rom turning the boost up to 10? Is it posible, just really really unsafe without an intercooler?

That would be the wastegate.

Im saying

Nothing that a $5 bleeder valve cant change. Same as whats stopping a stage 2 guy from running 30psi. Only common sense ultimately stops anybody from attempting to boost to whatever their turbo will boost to.

Is it
>posible, just really really unsafe
>without an intercooler?

yes and yes

>Is it a whole different turbo?

The HRC kits come w/ differnt wastgate actuators
