if you are working on a head i would recommend larger valves as well...

Considering the grind of the stage 2's, and if one had a MIC setup, the chip would need to be retuned right?

Is that a complicated thing if it's not done at [in this case] Tom and Mike's place?

KEEP em or go bigger...

With a turbo, your topend is wacky, and it usually drops off, so by all means, keep em or go bigger, im super glad i have my crower stage 2s with my turbo, the topend is a huge difference....and you will gain very good numbers

Jon(fastrax) made like 23whp with stage 2crowers, tuned at 12psi...

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Well, I wouldn't say that it's wacky...it really depends on the size of your turbo. You can make the top end pull like a mother if you're willing to wait until 4500 rpm for your boost.

Why do you guys say that about turbos not a one of mine fall off in the top end at all and i dont wait till 4500 to get power it comes down to what you do in the setup piping,turbo,tuning,

If the correct turbo parts and tune is picked it wont fall off in the top and wont take till 4500 to make power
