Upgrading From HPF Stage 2 to Stage 2.5 - What do you get?

[HPF Chris]

Only a handful of customers have had the luxury of driving both the stage 2 and the stage 2.5. People ask about it all the time and it's really hard to describe the differences other than it's just MUCH faster. Even though the peak power is relatively close (except on pump gas), the stage 2.5 is gut-wrenching.

So I decided to put together a bunch of dyno graphs showing the comparisons...

PUMP GAS ONLY

PUMP GAS AND METHANOL

Also a full second faster 60-130 time. :) Chris post the torque graphs, I think that's the bigger surprise. I drive on just pump fuel 95% of the time - race + meth is a rush. :yikes:

:drool: can't wait to feel the difference, and I should be able to track striaght with little to no wheel slip with the OS Giken diff and the HPF traction control! :pimpin:

I love living 3 hours away from HPF!!! Let me start the list for everyone..chime in if you want your name on it..

Dear Santa,
I have been a good BMW HPF M3 owner. I only put the best things in my car, now I know you probably frowned about what happened last week. Santa it was a moment of weakness, her name was tawny and she really REALLY liked my car. How was I suppose to know she would take advantage of us, I mean seriously we were violated. Santa lets put that in the past..Santa I promise I will be the best HPF stage 2.5 owner in the world, along with my 10 other HPF stage 2 brothers..P.S. can I have my present early, like next week?

Sincerely,

Derek

Sounds good. Let us know what dates you're looking to do it, and we can pencil you in.

You're going to love it. I just dropped your bearings off at the machine shop today. The motor will be done on Tuesday and going back in your car. The diff will be back in your car on Monday. :)

I love the stage 2.5 kits!!! Now wait for me to post the stage 2 to stage 3 and stage 4 overlays!! :)
