Bm3 stage 2 E30/race gas vs JB4 map 7?

How does the stage 2 e30 or race gas map from ptf compare to map 7 on jb4? I've seen people making good power (~400whp) on map 7 even without a new intercooler. I'm about to flash stage 2 bm3 on my car with bolt ons minus a fmic and was wondering what I should expect to make.

Without an intercooler either one is a waste of time and money. You can make this power on a dyno but on street you wont be making anywhere near that power.

I have not compared both on the same setup and car but im interested in the results

I plan on getting a new intercooler from y'all as soon as I can. In the mean time I'll probably run stage 1 for most of the time and maybe stage 2 once in a blue moon on a cooler day or something.

Do we have data on whether the standard intercooler upgrade is good enough under most conditions compared to a bigger “competition” style intercooler?

The vrsf 5 in does well with the stock pwg turbo. I took an e30 log over the weekend, conditions were about 90F and 80% humidity. My IAT was 110F when I downshifted into third, and by the end of the run my IAT was 100F.
