Stage 4 is better.

I'm hijacking for a sec, what cars were produced with d17's? i haven't been in the swing of imports for two years i lost track!?

and regardless if the d17 was a strong platform you can never go wrong with installing after market internals to strengthen area's that would be stressed if you were to turbo in the future.
