For vehicles with higher mileage, we recommend installing a sport clutch so that the increased power can be effectively transferred to the road.
The same tips apply as with Tuning Kit 1. The 200 hp is achieved with the large intercooler and the 68 mm supercharger pulley. From this point on, you should only use 102 octane fuel.

Of course, the same applies to our Stage 3 kit as to Kit 1 & 2, but from here on an oil cooler kit should be installed so that the oil temperature is always in the green range. Our adjustable camshaft sprocket is also a must-have. The Schrick camshaft shifts the timing. To adjust them correctly you need our adjustable camshaft sprocket.
Since the camshaft of the Tuning-Kit 3 is replaced by one from Schrick, you should also order the necessary parts for the assembly. For example: set of sports hydro tappets, valve cover gasket, mounting grease for the camshaft and the already mentioned camshaft sprocket. Also here you should refuel 102 octane.
