I have a Spec Stage 4 and I love it. It took some getting used to for daily driving but its not too bad. The stage 3 is supposed to be alot better

As far as spec goes, unless you have a 12-bolt or equivalent I wouldn't suggest getting the Stage 4 since it is extremely aggressive. Stage 3 or 3+ will suffice.
