I have the Stage 1 as well, and would love that extra torque. I do like the way it wails above 3500 rpms though. The extra hp up there is intoxicating.

So I was out today and one thing I noticed was when in DS mode and running higher RPMs, it pulls quite a bit harder. You know when you hammer the throttle and it goes through 3rd, 4th, 5th, and it...
