Stage 2 or Stage 3 Hybrids?

I need to pull the injectors on my 96 to do O-rings, and I'm not planning on putting the stockers back in. Right now my truck just has an Intake and Exhaust. I was debating between the Rosewood Stage 2 and Rosewood Stage 3 238cc Hybrids. What do you guys personally think? I was also looking at a PHP Chip in addition to the Sticks. I know I will probably need to upgrade my HPOP, and I don't know alot about those so much help appreciated.

Also do the new Rosewood sticks have the orings on them already? Thanks, Pete

You didn't mention what turbo you'll be using.
You need a bigger turbo than stock for Stage-2 and a much bigger turbo than stock for Stage-3's.
A new 17° HPOP will be fine with good tunes to power either Stage-2 or Stage-3.

unless you plan lots of supporting mods and spending alot of money, just go stage 2's or even stage 1's.

X2..unless you need over 450HP no reason to get Hybrids..cost more and will need much spent on support mods.

What turbo do you guys reccomend? I would have no problem doing an HPOP and Turbo if they aren't crazy expensive. And where could I find a 17 degree HPOP for a fair price? Thanks, Pete
