Stage IV upgrade
As some have stated: Don't stay on this board if you want to keep your car stock.
I haven't been able to tell the difference between the various tuners stage IV packages. Are they all pretty much the same? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
I am in SoCal.
Thanks,
RG

Pretty much the same. I like my GIAC, works great. Don't get an intake and make sure to get the Wastegate mod (or new wastegates), they make it all work.
BTW I also really love the Remus Exhaust for mellow sound and good power. Great price available at speed gallery.

Most tuners utilize the 5 bar fuel pressure regulator... that is the max before u go to the big systems... with that being said, the HP achieved MAX is about 650 HP and that is cutting it close...
So if u compare 3 tuners with a 5 bar FPR in it they will produce similar power.. the difference will be HOW the power will be delivered. that is all...

What tuners are you comparing. Stage IV is definately not the same accross the board. Make sure you know what you're getting.
