To Stage 3 or not?
I'm running the Stage 2 Cobb with a Fabspeed exhaust, headers, IPD Plenum and BMC filter, and it's insanely quicker than stock...I can easily see the massive difference when I uninstall the software. Boost is also substantially higher on the Stage 2.
So, for those of you running the Stage 3 or Stage 2+ GIAC with the new IC's, how much of a difference would I see? I don't track or drag but I do WOT her to 120 here and there...
I don't need the ability to WOT over and over without heat soak, pulled timing issues etc...I WOT once in a while, not back to back.
Is it worth the effort and cost if I'm not tracking/ dragging? Will I feel much of a difference in the street on a WOT pull, and if so, where?

1. Power is significantly greater at higher RPMs/higher speeds. At stage 2 the car would be pulling back power up top to keep IATs safe
2. No more heat soak
3. There is also more power from a dig -- my PIlot Super Sports could handle the power from GIAC Stage 2 from a dig but they spin a good deal on Stage 2+

Im still trying to get the most out of stage 2 without the TC interference. I need to get back to the dragstrip but my life keeps interfering. This weekend it's the F1 race and next weekend I will be doing a COTA event on Sunday so maybe I will go Friday night before that for the test and tune and make it a car racing weekend. I am still waiting on delivery of my y-pipe and ICs.
