I called APR and they said i should get the stage 2+ software. when i asked will it really make a diff, they said it will change how the readings for the o2 sensor affect the car and that there should be some gains. I am trying hard to find time between work m-f since no one is open sat for a reflash. my question is am I really going to notice the change?

Did you relocate your O2 sensors in the piggies?

Default 2nd. Same code. I ran some tests with 2+ code vs 1-2 code and found no power difference.
Was 2+ with IC's at the the time.

Default You know if you had a home programmer and APR EMCS ECU, you could download your own code.
I tried lots of different stuff this way over the years.
