I don't think the stage 3 tune is that good - its good between 3000 and 5000 rpm and mostly blows outside of those rpm's. Most of the torque seems to be available at the lower end of that - the clutch was slipping when i bought the car and it has not been drag raced - think previous owner has floored it at too low rpm's too many times.
As for durability of the engine - these power levels is not a problem for these engines, should be ok. I have noticed anything yet.
Cool,thanks for engaging,its hard to be objective with stuff like this and I can't compare your tune with my APR stage 1,but when buying sound equipment,the sales guy has a remote to instantly compare different speaker systems,you just know what you like.
Not so with tuning levels of cars,exhaust sound systems etc ,we mostly have to go on opinions and maybe get sometimes disappointed...its nearly impossible to compare unless you know someone with exactly the same car ,so your comments are appreciated...
As for your clutch,your previous owner probably rode it at traffic lights or did what you suggested-I've seen ppl doing it,makes me cringe.
