I'm a new owner of a 2003 PT Cruiser GT. I'm automotive literate but not so much when it comes to forced induction. So I'm reading a ton of stuff about mopar stage 2 wastegate working on our PTs. I'm seeing posts about dual stage boost controls and of course Stage 1 kits.

So my question is will a mopar stage 2 wastegate do anything if installed by itself? If it will increase performance is it automatic or does it need to be dialed in (tuned). If I get a mopar stage 2 wastegate will the Stage 1 kit work with it? Then lastly do I need a dual stage boost controller with the first 2 add ons?

The car is a daily driver but I want a decent amount of power above what a stock PT GT has.

I did a search but nothing really answerers these questions and or explains once they are installed what needs to be adjusted and if anything needs to be monitored.
