I have had stage 1 for 6 months or so now, but recently took it off due to the hot temps here in Texas.

When it gets hot - 90-108F here lately - the car just does not feel right with the stage 1 on. Shifts are hard, acceleration is muffled and jerky.. hard to explain. Feels like it is running rich almost. Either way, it concerned me enough to take it off and the car drives fine stock.

I am guessing with the safeties built to lower boost with too cold or too hot oil temps, lower boost when taking off, etc., it may resolve those issues.

I have the sport line and will be getting the m-sport retro kit, m-performance suspension, and will decide if I am going to go stage 2 or get the PPK after that.

I will probably put stage 1 back on when it cools off some.
