I didn't notice too much with the trans SW performace, but as said above the behavior of the trans is what changed. I like that I can stay in gear without a forced shift and the slightly higher rev limit (In manual mode) is nice. I love it for canyon driving.

Stage 1 Engine SW is kinda "meh". You wont notice the HP, but what you likely will notice is the throttle remapping and "feel" faster. Some say that since it's optimized for 91AKI you get a smidge better MPG, but it's not like we count that anyway .
