You can choose either stage 1 or 2 in the group buy. I thought this becomes a HID thread...XD

Well what should i do then? get stage 1 of stage 2?

Well if the stg2 chip doesnt make me stg2 then what will?

And again, if the stg1 and stg2 are the same price in this group buy, why wont everyone just got stg2?

stage 2 of course lol. don't worry about what stage your car is, just feel the awesome power after you get the chip. some people are afraid of ruining their car or something other. i recommend you get stage 2. there's plenty of people on here running it. also keep in mind that you may have to replace a coilpack or 2 since they will be under more stress and use. regapping your plugs is a must.

if you do the maintainance and repair yourself, stage 2 of cause. if not, you may want to choose stage 1 as it puts less stress on the engine, turbo etc therefore things have less possibility to go wrong.

actually i got a question. does anyone know what the revlimit stock is? cause i could have sworn, getting chipped removes the speed limiter and extends the revlimit to 7100. i cant seem to rev out past about 6700. not that its a problem, but i just thought that i should be able to get to 7100.
