I was stage 1 until last week, got the dump done, and omfg! Now, will an fmic make as big a difference?

when i did my fmic it made the power alot smoother down low alot better for daily driving and the power holds alot longer and harder to red line. but the biggest difference is heatsoak with the stocker i would stop in traffic for 10 minutes then take off fast and felt like i took the turbo off the car was a nugget lol now with the fmic can sit in traffic and take off and it and all the power is still there

i just cant win with this car always finding new problems
did a oil change on the car over the weekend and everything looked good but today on my way to work i noticed the EPC light come on but went away after a minute and i think it happened a few days ago as well. noticed the brake lights werent working properly so im guessing its the switched but sometimes the lights work and sometimes it doesn't

Well I've finally decided to pull my thumb out I'm dropping off the polo to the mechanic tomorrow mainly cos the axle is leaking at the box so getting a new seal put in. I could do it myself but honestly don't have the time or energy for it and also rego time but while he has the car we are gonna sus out a new dump pipe and a hiflow cat.
The cat shouldn't cost much so hopefully if the price is right should be all good to go then comes stage 2 revo tune
Ok oil leak is fixed and running good again and he is looking at a dump pipe now
I know this mechanic works on a lot of VW's and stuff and not sure what site but he has found a 3" dump with the flex piece straight bolt on for $250 and he is sorting out a hiflow cat and whatever site he found it on it said made for stage 2 tune on the polo so it's gonna be under $600 easy.
If it all works out good I'll try and get some of these websites he uses and try and get some pics soon
I told him that and he said it's made to fit the polo 9n but if it's not right it's his problem but maybe he will modify it a bit being a engineer shouldn't be hard for him to make it work

Well I have some good news and bad news
Bad news is I spoke to my mechanic and he somehow snapped one of the bolts in the turbo and also they guy he was getting the dump pipe off was stuffing him around so he canceled the order
Good news he has had another customer come in with a golf gti think like a 98 model or something and he bought a complete milltek exhaust and doesn't want to go stage 2 tune and is just using the cat back so the dump pipe with hiflow cat and everything is going on my car he has lined it up and said it will work just about straight bolt on maybe just some minor mods but getting it at a fraction of the price so should be ready in the next day or two I hope and it's a 3" dump
