    I lined my APR stage 1 ecu and dsg tuned and fittedcwith a performance Invidia Q300 catback system against a stage 2 tuned Golf R. Guess what? We where pretty equal on the drag. This goes to show that my set up was just as effective with an added performance catback system. Though the system was not cheap. But! You get what you pay for.

    Each to their own. I think a stage 2 is a waste of money unless you are competing regularily at a drag race or just want the BRAGING rights.
    I run stage 1 APR and a dsg tune. Lined mine up next to a stage 2 tuned Golf R and performance wise there was not much in it. Slightly in front and that was it. Stage 1 is definitaly worth it. That is were you make radical gains. Anything else are slight increments unless you go for the full monty tunes that are out there. But then you are running reliability risks.

    IMO, stage 2 is not worth the money. These cars arent designed for what most people will consider a stage 2. Youre better off rebuilding the whole engine if you want more than stage 1+ tunes/power. They are not build to put out much more power than they already do, but I havent heard of any issues with stage 1 reliability. Stage 2 is immediately very unreliable. Stage 3 is practically guaranteed to blow it up..... Enjoy them tuned, or rebuild them. The block wont be an issue with forged internals and such, upwards of 700hp.. and these cars make supercars look slow at that power.
