Default Brenspeed stage 2 saleen kit ?

Hi,

I am thinking about adding 1 of these kits to my car, does anyone here have this kit?
If so what rwhp are you getting out of it and how long was your install time?

Thanks,

Mike

if you are considering doing it I'd recommend you call them and ask. 6 hour install time with around 415-440rwhp I believe is common with his stage 2 kit. I know there are some members here who have gotten it but I'm not sure when/if they will chime in.

I'd trust them to tell you the truth with average rwhp/rwtq and install time though.

Im going stage three... I talked to them about it. They have seen general numbers with stage two. I quote the person I spoke to (via email) and he said you should expect about 420-440 with the stage 2 and about 450-480 with the stage 3...

Stage 2 will bring you right around a little less than 500 crank hp...

Dont have the kit, but it is a good choice.

Tonks numbers sound high to me based on the amount of boost these kits produce. A stage 3 isnt even 10psi I believe. I think it is only 8psi.

For a street car anything over 400rwhp is great ride.

Good luck

I think if you go with the stage two...you'll wish you went with stage 3. lol. I'm going with a stage 3 once the bonus check comes in. stage 4 is out of the question cos then you'll need forged internals.

I'm not pushing anyone to do something they don't want but there are many people running around at 500 rwhp with stock internals.

My stage 2 put 422 at the wheels(93 octane). I upgraded to the stage 3 shortly after(trust me, you will too) and pulled 432 after sitting in rush hour traffic in95 deg. heat for an hour with no cooldown period on 92 octane gas. Im going to have another pull done when its a little cooler. It'l' take dave 6 hours and the service is AWESOME! those guys are very cool. I would recomend making a trip out of it. But call them and q&a a little, it'll be a big help.
