Default New Kid On The Block

I am a new owner of a 2006 GT, Dang I love the car! Its the fastest thing I have driven in years, It was a toss up between a Mini Cooper and a GT and the GT won hands down.

Being the new guy, I have no idea what a stage 1, stage 2 is [:I]. Fill me in on how to make this car more enjoyable than it already is!

Cool someone from where I am. The Stage 1 is a PCM (computer) that has been reprogramed to get more power out of your engine. Various places sell it. For PT's 2004 and up the kit is just the new computer and for the 2003's it also comes with new injectors.

On a GT you are looking at a 20 horse power increase. Unforunately Mopar does not make a Stage 2 for PTs but there are lots of different things you can do to make Stage 2 or better power.

Welcome.
You got the answer - except I'm not sure Stage 1 is out for the '06 GT yet - it is year-to-year specific. [:I]

Welcome, GT-CRSR. We're a split family. We've got both. I've got the GT and he's got the Mini Cooper S. Check out page 3 of my Web site. Of course I'm partial to the GT. But, really they are both a blast to drive. They Mini really makes the big SUVs mad, especially in the curves. Welcome again.
