Copy of dyno readout from my etuners Australia stage 2.
The green line is stage 1 with downpipe.

This is a legitimate concern I have but I've been reassured that all Stage 2 OEM+ get around the claimed figures.

I would take all claimed power figures from generic tunes with a grain of salt.

Nice power curve! How does the Tig sound now with the downpipe? Does the downpipe remove the midpipe resonator ?

No, I still have the standard resonator, the exhaust shop said the resonator was a straight through design and the biggest restriction was the standard muffler, so I replaced it with an Arcam sports muffler. Not too loud, but there is some resonance around 1500 rpm.

CTS downpipe removes the resonator.

I am running the APR downpipe and midpipe which removes the resonator and connects to the stock muffler. I’ve noticed with the past few cold days that there is certainly noticeable resonance upon start up, however after driving for a few minutes in D it settles down. It’s not unpleasant however, it does draw attention, and I think most people would not expected it from a Tig.

That's engine power. Add 25% to kw@4 wheels to engine kw and you get close

Yeah reference was more so towards the improvements over stage one. I'd be pretty disappointed to spend an extra $2k for 10kw and few nm.

Unfortunately after stage 1 it's diminishing returns for $ spent....
