By stage one I'm guessing you went with a PV, pipes, and A/C?

At the risk of sounding like I am raining on the parade(which I am not because I intend to make all the same mods), I installed just the SE AC on my 2012 Limited and got the "friendlier power, better throttle response, smoother" w/o the other stuff so now I am wondering if I need to spend the money?

i really wasn't looking for more power,i don't want to go fast anymore..my bulletproof days are over.. i just wanted a better sound (slip ons) and a little better responding bike.. but more so i know because of epa standards the 103's run lean, and freeing up the exhaust and intake compounds it, this is my last bike for a long time (bought 3 2012's in the last 5 months)...didn't want to harm the engine.. more for peace of mind than anything
