Dahlback Racing is now here in the US!! Hans Dahlback is here for a few weeks and will be touring
several gatherings, including Waterfest! The US shop is called TPS-Racing, located here in S. FL.
TPS Racing has their grand opening today (for those in the S FL area! Come on down to West Palm Beach - 3379 Military Trail, just south of 10th Ave).
TPS will be another great source for mods, plus they will be doing chips in the near future! They are test tuning a few US cars right now
They've brought over their 900HP RSI GTI (BTW,it street legal) Here's Hans unlaoding the car. And a shot of the engine.

We took out my GIAC chip and put in his chip, then he drove my car and tuned all the air, fuel,and
everything else so that all my mods are working together. My car runs so smooth and strong! My butt dyno tells me it feels much stronger linearly than the GIAC. I'm recording some runs to see what kind of numbers I get. He's going to check it again today.
He said I don't have to worry about anything blowing! He's using my car and another friends right now to work out some US programing.

Makes me wonder...
What could he do for stage 3, if I added the fmic, 225 TB and intake, ported and polished of course, and running my BMC intake???
Could more be squeezed out of it?
Or have APR done all that can be done?
I know they dont custom program thier stuff to each persons mods etc..so Dahlback could be getting a call from me if I decide to go this route...

I'm sure ANY good tuner could custom program a chip for Stage III with additional mods - the
issue is really - WILL they and CAN they take the time to do. I think that there will be plenty of room for improvment with the mods you've noted over the standard Stage III. If Dahlback is willing to do it - i'd have him do it in a heartbeat. It is my understanding that he was involved in the development of the 5V head.... Gary, maybe you can find out :-)
