yes, you could call it stage ii…and then we’ll all make fun of you.
you’re driving an NA car. There are bolt ons, and power adders, and maybe some deeper engine work/headwork/cam work…but no stages in the NA nomenclature.
Stages are traditionally the bastion of small OEM power, small displacement forced induction cars. Even then, they’re murky as fuck and frankly a bit silly.
“I’m stage 1 because I have a tune”
“I’m stage 2 because I have a tune and one other part”
“I’m stage 3 because I have bigger turbos”
“I’m stage 3+ because my bigger turbos are cooler”
What about the guy with no tune, but full exhaust, fully decatted, LW wheels, LW rotors, BBK, intake and a reworked intake manifold, exhaust and intake cams? Is he stage 0? Who the hell cares.
Your car is your car, and stages mean nothing. You can’t just say ‘I’m stage X’ even if you’re in a turbo car because you always end up having someone say ‘what mods?’ and then you explain them anyway…so the stage nomenclature is useless.
