I agree even in my case....aiming for 400whp which I think we are still about 2 years away from (Bolt-ons kits to be released)

I get a lot of inquires/concerns about the low hp/tq gains of these tunes, but they always look at the "peak" and not the actual graph.
For example-
Between OEM tune and Stage 2 theres a +19.45whp/+24.26wtq peak difference in power, but the graph shows the powerband at 4500rpm (232.68-202.12) +30.56whp (271.65-235.98) +35.67wtq.
Even if the peak numbers are not greatly impacted, the power gain throughout the powerband (rpm range) will move the car faster from point A to B therefore making the vehicle's acceleration faster.
With the BMS Stage 1
We are only seeing a +1.12whp peak, but at 4000rpm there's a difference of +22.81 WHP and +30.8 WTQ. Power under the curve is where the driver will really feel the difference.

HPS intake tube finally showed up. Installed in like 10 minutes. No real noticeable difference in sound (this is a good thing), but could definitely feel that the motor is coming into the power easier. It's like the lower restriction of this tube lets the turbo spool up easier therefore getting the maximum stock boost in lower gears. This is the first time I've seen 17 PSI in 2nd gear. The response may have improved a little but honestly did not have an opportunity to really test that. Overall good product. I think I will hold off on the BMS stage 1 for a bit. DP is next on the list. Once Sheddy gets his updated stage2+ tune I'll make a decision on if I go TTi.
