Carb certification makes the decision easier to buy a Stage Kit, but the warranty issue is STILL the downfall from making it a concrete decision.
It's been stated 1,000,000 times that other companies warranty their aftermarket products etc. etc. etc. and DCX is still in the dark ages.
The poll should be very specific for the people who are just run of the mill GT owners. These people are probably the best indicator, whether a Stage 2 will succeed. People who bought Stage 1 most likely didn't care if it was CARB or warrantied. (But still like your efforts for trying Tommy
)
BTW, leave a message to big brother that I want my Stage 2 now (If its CARB approved, only) :P.
