I've got the ESS stage 2 tune and LOVE it. Really woke the car up. No issues so far, and super easy to install.
I also installed a ER charge-pipe (with a BOV) and Wagner FMIC to try and help with heat-soak in the hot Los Angeles weather. Power gains are modest with these mods, but it was really more about keeping consistent power. I also went with the the EVO 1 competition (smallest but lightest option) version so that no cutting was required. It's plenty big for limited mods like a tune and CP. Hope this helps.
