is anyone planning on putting there car on a dyno soon and maybe testing out this map compared to other maps?
I was skeptical too since "stock style" made more power on somebody's G. So I started using "stock style" since. But just for curiousity I updated the firmware and I flashed my car using stage2. It has a stronger top end pull, I mean past 4k pulls harder than the "stock style".
My AFR at WOT is 12.2 but rev limiter is still at 7.5k I didn't see the extra 500rpm as promised. Regardless the car pulls harder than my previous flash.
If you don't like it you can still use the "stock style" map. All the maps got revised except the stock style.
Dude, just do it.

I would say use stage2 but not stage2+. Although stage2 required that you use your stock intake. Some people here used stage2 with CAI on HFC/TP's. Just monitor your AFR on WOT. It should be somewhere on mid to low 12's

I'm running stage 2+ on my car with CAI,Headers,Hfc's,And full exhaust.... Car feels great.. I have only driven the car a few times since i reflashed it.. Car runs awesome and pulls a lot harder then the regular stage 2 map.... Havent checked my af ratio at WOT.. Since my car is never at WOT..But might just do that this weekend... LOL

You'll run really rich = losing a lot of power. I'm not sure about how much timing advance is set on stage2+. One of the members tried running stage2+ without headers and at WOT his AFR was whopping 10 something.

Yeah i had stage 2 and the only reason I jumped up to the stage 2+ is because it accounted for all the mods that I had so I figured my car would run better.... And it does..Some people jump up the stage 2 + because it accounts for the CAI

Try running it on stage2 see how it goes. If you get a custom tune now then you gonna have to redo it again when you get your headers.

It's give and take. I've heard good and bad things about stillen headers, but I'll wait a bit and maybe I'll have more options to choose from.

I wouldn't know your AFR but you are surely running lean. You're AP will fix you AFR. But I would prefer my AFR to be in high 12's or low 13's. Hopefully cobb will release their pro-tune for our cars.
