The combination of the 3 doesn't yield any meaningful improved power... hence the lack of the stage 2 tune. Simply wasn't anything being gained. On a stock car the intake yields some performance improvement but when the car is tuned the tune basically cannibalizes any gains you get from the intake as the car is simply tuned from the factory pretty close to its limits. This may change when the intercooler and/or upgraded turbo is put on the car and the vehicle is allowed to breathe a bit better and the intake temps reduced but on a tuned car the intake is basically for improved throttle response, looks and a bit of sound.
