Stage 2 for most folks is catless DP's. Dinan doesn't mess with DP's (wish to maintain a completely legal - inclusing emissions - product line) so our stage 2 N55 flash is based around the upgraded turbo. I could not say how it would perform with the setup you described or with what kind of power. I would imagine it would be a bit less than advertised but that would be a guess as again, we don't test with DP's. Our tune would not correct for the resulting CEL though which is all I can say for sure.

As noted above its a bit different comparison as the supporting mods are geared differently. Our stage 1 flash on the N55 though is right in the mix, as far as power numbers go, with the rest of the market. Its also one of, if not the cheapest option on the market for F chassis N55 flashes.
yeah but you can get a bm3 package for 500 to 550 new (most retailers give discounts) add 50 for the map pack and you have access to all the various maps from stage 1 up to stage+ meant for hpfps and turbos etc.. and you get logging included, a trans flash included etc etc.

in what world would I even give you guys a thought in regards to a tune?

I'm not trying to be a dick or anything. I know you guys have a market but it just doesn't make sense to me when there appears to be more cost effective options that will get more power in the long run.
