Default S5 B9 Sportback 2018 - Stage 1 tune options

Hi folks,

My car is out of warranty and I was looking through this forum and reddit searching about Stage 1 tune options. TBH I'm a bit lost and not sure which info is still up to date, so I have a few questions (JFYI I'm a noob in terms of car mechanics)

1. Is there a post/thread with aggregated information about Stage 1 tune options with recommendations?
2. Looks like Stage 1 tune is relatively safe for the engine, would you recommend any hardware upgrades?
3. I'm not familiar with car mechanics, but willing to learn, but don't want to spend too much time on it. Would you still recommened the Stage 1 based on that information?

Thanks!

Stage one is the easiest and quickest way to get power. While not required, having an upgraded intercooler would be a good move. Stage 1 is pretty safe too. I was between 034 motorsports and APR. I've traditionally used APR but I chose 034 for the B9.

I'm stage 2 on 034Motorsport.
