I was referring to the stage 2 Tune (I believe also commonly referred to piggy back) not flash. From my understanding only required the air intake. Comparing that to the Stage 1 Flash.
Ahh— stage 1 flash hands down is the way to go. Better/more power, smoother delivery, more robust (touches more variables directly), removes governer and has different octane mappings where the Dinantronics does not. It's also cheaper. The only real advantage Dinantronics has the ability to remove it and/or turn it off at a whim which really only has an advantage for warranty work which you more then likely are out of anyway so that's pretty immaterial.
