maybe, just maybe....the OP is a legit new HD guy who excited about what he's found and is asking a lot of newb questions
anyhow...a stage 2 or 3 is where you'll really see the difference in an upgrade...the magic is in the cam...a stage one is just a rite of passage for every new HD owner...the oem hd exhaust installer lives a pointless existence
Now, now brown cow. Hmmmm, who may be the troll around these here parts?
1. In the OP, it shows he 'juss joined us. "Dec 2021".
2. Upper left under his User Name, it says "New Member".
3. Heck man, right outta the chute he says "I'm new to HD."
4. Also mate, did you look at atjurhs sig? No troll would have a sig like that mate.
5. To say the least, he is from Alabama. Y'all know all Alabamians are loving courteous chaps eh?

Thank you! Not sure why all the smart-a** comments. I have been only riding for 7 years and a Harley for just 5 years. Nope I do not know how to work on it. I get regular service to keep it safe and running well. Yes I am learning this and that every day. So I do appreciate straightforward answers to legit questions. We were all newbies at one time

I'm new to HD. I just got a 2020 StreetGlide with V&H VO2X airfilter and Big Radius 2-N-2 pipes, looking for info on what is Stage1 Stage2 Stage3 and how it will benefit my bike. I've tried the search engine but it's not giving good answers.
Welcome to the group.
I could be wrong but here is my take.
Stage 1: High flow Air intake and exhaust.
Stage 2: Stage 1 plus performance Cam install and a Dyno tune.
Stage 3: Stage 1&2 plus a Big bore kit and retune.
Stage 4: Stage 1-3 plus heads reworked and ported or new heads plus new injectors and throttle body.
