On their site they say 3.3 is for stage 2+. Also will the 93 octane program work fine with 92 octane gas?

3.3 or 5.0 has both a stage 2 and stage 2+ version. Get the 5.0

Default Correct find a local person with the programmer or buy the programmer yourself
and upgrade it Or you can warranty the ECU/program for like $50.00 thru APR and have them flash it for you

Default Correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn't you run a chip with the stock exhaust?
It may be sub-optimal, but should still be fine. I've never heard of any of the chip tuners requiring stage2, or stage2+ for a non-race chip?

Default Just talked to a local APR vendor...he said he'll update it for free. Should
I leave it with the 93 oct. program? I do have access to 92 oct.

Default I just noticed on their site V3.3 was specified for stage 2+ and V5.0 was
specified for stage 1 & 2.

Default Can you run multiple programs on V3.3?
I have four "slots" on mine(V5.0) & can change the programs through the cruise control. I currently have stock, 91, 93 octane programs and will add the 100 oct next time I pull the ECU. Valet mode can also be added to any of the open slots.
