I've been called everything from a car nut to an enthusiast, & many things not fit to repeat. From the time as a child when in my Grandpa's driveway I sat behind the wheel of his cherry '33 Plymouth roadster I've been hooked. Which brings me to our Sonics, mine's a just bought diamond white '16 RS, with turbo stage kit & modified lowered suspension kit. Wouldn't mind another 50 or so horsepower, but a very satisfying little ride. Might look for best ways to achieve those 50 extra horsepower here on the forum. Happy to share my humble knowledge of the quest. Advice given to us cycle riders applies here too, "Keep the shiny side up!"

Bnr is one of the most popular choices for toonez
You paid for the gm upgrade, does the include "calibration" for the new goodies? If so, you have to consider what Dubbs said about your warranty. If you get new toon you have to take your car in to dealer for work, you'll have to switch back to your stock toon to not void it.

Hammrdwn, the GM Turbo Stage Kit includes recalibration of the ECM only for its Borlas cat back. I asked Dubbs why not Trifecta because I understand that the Trifecta Tune can be switched back to stock ECM settings with the cruise control switch, staying "under the radar" for warrantee work.

If you get a tune, you will have wasted the extra cost of getting the Turbo Stage Kit over the basic Borla exhaust.
If you get the BNR tune, it can still be flashed back to stock but must be done with the included hand-held which contains the tune and a copy of your stock parameters.
edit: actually I'm probably wrong about one thing; the copy of your stock tune should included the stage kit tune, so probably no waste.
