I was under the impression that the software changed stage 2->3
you have 185hp ORIGINAL? Stage 3 goes to 314 ft-lb. Did not see 316.
The torque increases around 6% from stage 2 -> stage 3. For $1230 cost difference it does not seem like enough kick in the butt. And I still think that you need new software.
For the new Aero's the stage 2->3 only gets 14 ft-lb and 15 HP. So the cost benefit for the Aero's looks bad on paper. Any real life reports? For another $5500 you can get 6 more ft-lb, whohoo!
Or stage 4 costs 10 times what stage 1 costs and gets you 50% more added torque than stage 1, +62 -> +93.
