Stage 1 arrived today, tomorrow I'm a Stage 2

UPS delivered my Stage 1 today. I started the install, but ran out of time so I will finish it in the morning. The fuel rail removal isnt as easy as the directions make it out to be. But after I'm finished I will be a stage 2. Has anybody installed a stage one with the psi-fi kit. Was curious how it ran with the powerpaq. And another question, For those that have the stage reflash and the comp package boost gauge installed from amishlands harness, do you read boost higher than 12.5psi?

Just out of curiosity, why would you even need both the powerpaq and the stage 1 kit?

I was meaning the injectors only. the powerpaq will be removed before the dealer applies the pcm flash. I would have thought the injectors would have been acceptable with the powerpaq. But hey, what do I know.

I'm getting the flash done monday if it doesn't get screwed up.

I haven't done the injectors yet. I had to remove the fuel line connection at the feul rail in order to remove the assembly. The line is bolted to the manifold in a location that I cannot reach, and it does not flex. maybe its an 04 thing?

So why would it be a problem having the injectors on with the powerpaq. I realize it was tuned for the smaller pulley, will the injectors really screw it up that much.

it's not the injectors with the powerpaq, it's that stage 1 is also a reflash, and the reflash is doin what the powerpaq is doing (sort of, not exactly though)

Would it be ok to drive the car to the dealer with the kit injectors before the reflash?

The way Sp00ner made it sound, I thought I couldn't have the injectors on with the powerpaq, the whole reason I'm going with the stage is to get rid of the powerpaq. I was aware of the fact that the powerpaq had to be removed. I was just curious if the powerpaq would work ok with the ihjectors.
