ya that would be legit but the car is at a used car dealership and if im not mistaken for a stg 1 tune you would need some sort of supporting mods ie. intake,exhaust for the stg1 tune. i think if i were to do that i would be risking overboost and in return the ecu would put the car into some sort of valet mode or another limp mode. but ill have to check on it.

ooo nvm, i thought i read i here somewhere you said it was modded and the dude left some hardware in? also that would be a super long shot, but might be worth cheking out if you are planning on tuning. like buying the intake and edxhaust sooner rather than later if you can afford it.

evo is better for modding and making high horsepower.

Stage 1 is stock I'm pretty sure, not positive though.. It doesn't have much to do with the air flow if it does. Stage 2 is uppipe, downpipe, catback exhuast, higher flow and that's why you need the tune.

You also shouldn't really put intakes on Suby's until you're way high on HP. It fucks with the MAF and the a/f ratio and the stock intake is really good once the snorkel is remoced.
