FWIW, I found TAP stage 1 real good.
No overheating issues, good power and response.
Very good fuel economy as well.

Stage 3 was not what I was after, but it pulls hard but requires some WG 
adjustment to limit overboost.
It is for sale should anyone want it. Pricing ?? I will accommodate most 
offers :)
