Default Recommended homebrew stg 3 tips?

well the k04s are goin in soon but im still running on stage 2 software, etc. I bought the ecs tuning adjustable FPR since the true 5 bar is hard to come by and extremely expensive. So without getting stage 3 tuning, what are my best options for most power/safety. I've heard of lemmiwinks fuel tweaking but idk what it is. Should i run an MDC and TDC and just up the boost and fuel pressure? keep in mind my injectors and MAF are remaining stock for now so let me know what my best options are for now.

What software do you have now? GIAC has a K03 code for stock injectors.
Lemi is just used to fine tune.

Just throw in the K04's get a K04 chip, or just leave it as is, then hit the Dyno, and see where you fuel is, then use Lemi to tweak it.
Lemi does not let you cel tune, it's a global tune, so if you add more fuel, it will add that amount every where.

Go here to read up on Homebrew

so after reading through a bunch of those articles, i decided against the lemmiwinks tweaking, just because im not 100% confident with myself doing it, and im not close to any tuning spots. I also learned that the APR fueling/tuning kit seems to be the best, yet most expensive so as of now im looking into the VAST and AWE kits. I emailed both companies and asked abunch of questions. Now let me see if i understand this correctly, fueling/tuning kits come with:
injectors
bigger maf
some kind of ecu
all nec. hardware

shouldnt i be using a bigger FPR as well? ECS tuning offers an adj onebut VAST offers a"crushed" 5 bar, any opinions on either of those two?Sorry if this is so repetitive but there is so much more to piecing together a stage 3 kit correctly than i though.

If the kit needs a FPR it will come with it. Most use software & bigger injectors for fuel, so they don't need the FPR. All the upgraded FPR does on stock injectors is force more fuel threw then for the same injector pulse. Basically the FPR makes the injectors perform like they're bigger ones.

Both ASP & VAST will ROCK, can't go wrong with either.
