Is it noticeably faster than stage 1? On stage 1 there seems to be a slight lag before it comes on boost in 1st gear. I'm hoping that is eliminated in stage 2.

Traction may be a factor if it gets too cold for the tires you are running. Also, you might want to check the air filters to make sure they aren't getting dirty and limiting power.
