+/- R800 upgrade for Revo.
Stage 1 - can work on a standard car.
Stage 2 - in some cars need some hardware mods like DP, a Golf R can do stage 2 standard.

I have Stage 1, DP + De cat, intake, bigger intercooler - standard mods.

Revo - 2900 on special
DP + Decat - 3200
Intake - 700, looking for a ITG intake now
IC - 5000, did it more to eliminate heatsoak, worth it imo

Even with Stage 2 or Stage2+, 220kw is a bit much for the 2.0TSI Roc.

I suspect there are a few more hardware mods involved and potentially a custom tune. 220kw would be pushing your luck on the stock k03 turbo, but 220kw is probably a bit low if he's gone for the k04 conversion (unless that's a wheel measurement and not flywheel)

Hey guys. Does doing any upgrades cause any problems with warranty. Like downpipe etc.

I'd tend to go with yes.

But it does depend on the dealer, the mod and what has gone wrong under warranty.

Some will won't assist *if* you're mod is related to whatever failed. Others just turn their noses straight away
 
what is a downpipe?

and what does it do?

I have a Naturally Aspirated S2000, quick at the coast, not that quick up here
 
Mods on an NA car don't do much - you'll gains, but they'll be snall. You can do things like making it breath better etc - but I doubt you'll notice much.

Plus, the S2000 is already squeezing quite a bit of power out ...

Turbo cars the main thing is increasing the boost
