Deferred Maintanance

Recommended Posts

Due to school, I have not been able to work much on my 1995 850 Turbo for the past couple years. I finally have some time and want to get it all back up to snuff. I remember seeing a list somewhere of the items involved in Stage 1 maintance/upgrade, as well as Stage 2 and Stage 3 but can not seem to find it. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

Houston

I'll probably attract comments on this - This is not official, just my two cents.

Stages above zero represent modifying the engine for performance.

Stage I probably represents mods that do not require going into the engine - such as less restrictive exhaust and intake, perhaps upgrades of the fuel and ignition systems.

Stages II and III go deeper, like a cam, raising the compression, and valve/ manifold mods.

Stage IV would be a full race engine.

When your engine properly at stage 0, is in a relatively high state of tune. You would have to spend a ton of money to improve it, or try some things that are ill advised, or will dull its performance. It IS pretty easy to have it make more noise!

brad850 - THANKS! That is what I was looking for! Unfortunately, the search feature on this site doesn't allow for short word searches so it wasn't allowing me to search "Stage 0"
