Stage 2 is not a big turbo. I assume it has a Borg Warner k04 and not a EFR correct?

Stage 3 is big turbo, generally anything bigger than a GT28 is considered BT.

Nonetheless sounds like a niceley modified car

It's Stage II tune with a Borg Warner big turbo upgrade.

Re: Sams' Stage II Big Turbo Jetta

Intrigued to see the new car and if it has been put together well or not...

It is a very vague list of part too btw, not only the turbo but it lists coilovers, euro lights, and a bora front bumper...There are tons of different brands and qualities of coilovers, euro lights is a pretty generic term, what exactly do they mean by that, and a bora bumper is no different than a jetta bumper, the euro version is identical, it is the golf version that is different in terms of slots to accept different valances. Unless of course it is a bora r bumper, which is chinese, and very very rare and expensive...

dont quote me on it but i believe it is the Bora R bumper, from what the previous owner told me, he was semi vague with what the actual type of borg warner turbo it is I'm still doing research of all the parts on the car, and will update this thread accordingly. i will post a picture of it soon

Pics of the engine bay too! They are important!

That is 100% a Bora R Replica bumper, you can tell by the fitment around the headlights, it sags down in the middle.

Yeah this, definitely a rep bumper but the funnier thing is that oem bora r bumpers can't fit anything properly other than Chinese boras haha! Car's looking great perhaps you could get some skirts for it
