Downside: decreased smoothness / partial throttle driveability.

Default Stages (as I understand them) inside....

Stock: Stock ;-)

Stage 1: Chip only

Stage 2: Chip and exhaust

Stage 2+: Chip and exhaust with test pipes or high flow cats

Stage 3-: K04s, stock injectors, 5 bar fpr, 3- chip, stock MAF housing

Stage 3: K04s, larger injectors (usually with 4 bar fpr), larger MAF housing, stage 3 chip

Stage 3+: Stage 3 items with K04 hybrid turbos or RS6 turbos and tuning to support the higher capabilities of those turbos.

I'm not sure what to call a GT28RS S4 :-)
