For real performance change, you should look into 103ci, exhaust and PCMIII. It depends on how much $$ you want to spend, know what I am saying? [\\]

i gained 11hp and 9lb tq with stage 1. also a dyno tune is a must over canned maps and it runs smooth and no heat.

My Stage 1 results per dyno were close on an '08 Fat Boygained 10 hp but only 7 lb torque increase with SERT, Ness Big Sucker &amp\\; V&amp\\;H Big Shot Staggered. Getting some backfiring and gather from prior posts on this site that may indicate air leakage so getting it checked soon and perhaps numbers will change after that.&nbsp\\; I installed temp guage at same time so I cannot speak to whether runs cooler than prior to stage 1, but am told it should. Sure sounds much better than stock!
