Stage 1 is good because it gives your car ca. 60 HP more power.
Installing a reinforced IS20 or IS38 Upgrade-turbocharger gives
++200HP more immediately. It has the STABLE Premium TD05+ RACING bearing/basic unit by Ladermanufaktur Germany because you know how weak the stock IS20 and IS38 and other slightly modified or Chinese basic units are!!!) Avoid saving a few pounds risking your engine but INVEST in a highly stable basic unit.

In general: You need a bigger exhaust pipe and ic.
There are lots of options and turbobuilders - You have a great choice.

Some experiences of the PNP LM440 IS20 (for Leon Cupra MK3 and Ibiza MK5) in April 2018 in pictures and videos:

(There are also the bigger LM440 IS38 and LM500 IS38)


And the bigger PNP LM500 in Cupra in August 2018 - Some 60-125 / 100-200km/h times uphill.
