(Like I have) Stage two is a little more involved and yes, I would admit theres probably a greater risk of damage since you're potentially using more boost and a different fuel.

I don't have a downpipe installed so I can't help you with that. But if you get the stage two jb, from my research you can clear CELs. Thats a big positive to go stage two rather than stage one.
Thanks for the info! Let me know if you ever install a down pipe!
