Depends what power you want from it.

IMO go for a Stage 3 T3.

Hi christian...what sort of power levels do you think a T34 is required? also what sort of RPM does the boost kick in?

280 plus for a t34. You need a very good cylinder head to support it too. You'll start producing boost at around 2700 with a stage 3 t3 - this is what i'd also recommend.

Is it true that its a good idea to go for a stage2 if you want more power at
low-/mid range revs ?
