Wow, really? That's really interesting. Sounds like a worthwhile investment! I would love to know what's going on "behind the scenes" that's contributing to the power gains- I'm assuming probably changes to tables we don't have access to as of yet. How much is typically dealer install cost on top of the kit price?

Stock Stage 1 tune is supposed to be 21-23 psi depending on RPM. I will see once I get the base Stage 1 Tune loaded into my car. I am curious as to how fast it is compared to stock.

The stage tune ups the desired boost levels without even touching the Desired airloads and hardly touching the Max Airload Torque table. It will be nice to commaded 320 DAL and see that reflected as Actual Airload (Load on the Scanner).
