New revised version of GTT Stage 4 head!!

Hi guys in the quest for even more performance & flow we are now offering the GTT stage 4 head with fully CNC machined larger INLET valve throats. The throat diameter at the valve seat is a whopping 2mm larger than before. All other spec remains unchanged.
All Stage 4 heads ordered from now on will automatically have this improved spec, oh and no increase in the price either...still £1299+vat AND you still get to keep your old stock head ..

RR the car, have the head fitted, RR the car again and then tell us all the gains! That would be ace.

Roland,
Can you give a overview of the typical benefits of what a stage 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 head would give over the stock MCS head.

Cheers

Perm

why can't stage 2 heads be fettled to stage 4 spec. Would seem fairer for stage 2 owners to have that done than shelling out another 1400 quid for the stage 4.??????????????????????????? I'm nt shelling out another 1400 wuid plus fitting for an unproven stage 4 conversion.

So if you want to sort something out Roland price wise you can stage 4 mine and then get the RR read out on an independent rollers of what the difference is. Over to you

..My car and Lees car both still have the original Stage 4 heads same as you guys
Its IMO not worth changing from original stage 4 to latest version, save the money and put towards the turbo . The improvements in flow on the inlet side will be subtle, how that effects power will also be dependant on other mods to some degree.
Stage 2 to stage 4 is a bigger jump in spec though, but again even stage 2 with a GTT turbo conversion is going to be very very quick.
Ant....We could remachine your head to (original) stage 4 spec, but we would be 'undoing' all the CNC machining on the exhaust seats that is done on stage 2 therefore bear in mind would be paying for this work/machine set up etc twice, plus all the ports would need flowing by hand aswell all the way down as is bigger, also needs a set of shrick ex valves, hand lapping (again) and dismantling assembling (again) .
Its not that we dont dont to do it , its just the cost effectiness of repeating many of the operations .
......Excluding removing /refitting etc we can do for £750+vat.

Is this stage 4 head more aimed at people with/going for turbo conversions rather than those staying with the SC?

I intend to go for the GTT220 package first followed later by the GTT240 package. After that, if I wanted to go for the GTT260 package, would I be better off paying the extra for the Stage 4 head rather than the Stage 2 one?

I'm just trying to work out if the gains will be worth paying the extra, but I guess we won't really know until a performance comparision between the Stage 2 and Stage 4 heads is done.
