is xHP needed on mg tunes

I have a stock car with a vrsf catles dp looking to get more power.

1. Can I run stage 1 in a catless dp
2. Can I run stage 1 without a transmission tune (xhp) if so what are the drawbacks
2. Can I run stage 2 without a xhp tune

Thinking about getting a xhp trans tune but havent gotten around to it yet just wondering if anyone had any answers to my questions

Just get XHP regardless of your engine tuning. It is 100% worth it. Regarding your questions: You can run stage 1 tune with the catless dp. You can run stage 1 and stage 2 engine tuning without XHP.

You can run MG Flasher without xHP tune

As the produced torque is above the factory "limits" you usually would get a Chassis Stabilisation Code, but if yoou check the correct options during your flash that is taken care of by MG Flasher.

But in the end you can drive without but you shouldn't
