So you did the $1185 option - Stage 2 160cc single-shots??? I've been thinking HARD about doing that exact option. So now, in honor of the holiday weekend, I'm going to grill ya!!! LOL
1. Assuming you kept your foot out of it, have you noticed any mileage improvement? I saw no increase in milage with the stage 2's
2. Do you get more smoke or less? Thats up to you... Cruising around, it can be smokeless, turn up the chip and lug it, and the sun will dissapier
3. Do you have a chip? if yes, which one & what tunes? Ran the stage 2's with DI, DP and Elite tunes...
4. Do you tow? How heavy & how is it after? All the time. I loved to tow in the race settings, it pulled better and when cruising the EGT's were lower. Had to turn it down every now and then on the passes but...
Thanks man!! Your input could put me over the edge on this one!!

I have notice maybe a slight increase depending on the right foot.. Maybe 1 mpg.
As far as smoke goes, you can get it to smoke like a banshee if you really want to. I have a F5 chips from DP tuner and if I put it in a high setting and lug it, it will smoke pretty good!
And yes I do tow! I have a travel trailer that about 15000 lbs.. The truck handles it like a dream!
Hook it, I'll pull it.

SuperDoodie, look on the blue bar on top of the post, you will see a scale next to the post count. Click on the scale and a screen will popup, you can type a message then click the bottom bar. Just make sure the dot is in the right box.
Dang, I can't rep any of you guys. I will get you guys later.

On the right side you'll notice the little green dot ("chiclet"); With a better rep (more points) you get more chiclets... that's about all you get, but hey, for helping me out I can make a couple clicks.

I just put a set of the stage "2C" injectors from RDS (DIY guys). Basically the same stuff that doodie would have had if he kept his at 160cc. my nozzles are 80% larger than stock, i can get it to black out the sun like Joe said in the dyno tune, but these REALLY woke the truck up! Sound amazing too, i've always wanted that single shot clatter!

Its really fun to drive.. If I get a tailgater, I crank it up to my 140HP aggressive tune and give them a courtesy cloud
