The toys will only up the boost a little from the regular Stage 2 when the 100 octane is used. Otherwise there is no boost difference.

Actually , you will want to sell your MBC when you get S2. Since S2 maxes out the effciency of the stock turbo, at times seeing up to 20psi, right at the ragged edge of where the turbo is making any usable power, there are no gains to be had using an MBC or EBC. Unless maybe a DSBC helps you launch.

I have not been around too much, been alot of Stage 2 stuff going on over at the SRTforums. But two quick notes for stage 2 owners, just in case you are not on there.

1. ADJUST THE WASTEGATE PROPERLY!!!!!!! NO AGPS ALLOWED OR NEEDED.

2. PERFORM A LEAK CHECK ON YOUR CAR BEFORE INSTALLING STAGE 2.

Yep, actually, it ends up being from the point where the intake pipe ataches to the turbo to the throttle body. The tester attaches to the turbo body itself. I had two leaks, which I tightened, and less than a week later one of those popped completely loose. Just got 5 T-bolt clamps, I'll be installing those over the next few days.

I would hope that it would be leak free already, what causes these leaks?
