Hope someone with the Stage1 can go to a Dynojet do 2-3 pulls on the tune and last pull with the tune disabled via bluetooth app to see their baseline + delta gains.

So is it really worth it? What am I missing?

You're not missing anything, you clear have a good eye which sadly a lot are missing.
The car is almost stock and for what it cost, its throwing your money down the toilet.

(Considering myself which big turbo to go with along with my FBO's and flash tune. Either bootmod3+Pure Stage 2 or Dinantronics+Dinan big turbo. Tough decision. Forget all the warranty and installation and pricing- which big turbo would be best for RELIABLE smooth power delivery)
Easy decision, do you want reliable gain+ with still plenty of headroom if you plan to max out the PS2, with flexibility, features, best resale value & custom tuning for your octane needs or
you want to buy a similar turbo to your current M2 (rumors say the Dinan turbo is similar to stock and has no comparison to PS1 and PS2 is leaps and bound ahead in another category) , conservative piggyback (Not a flash) and pay 80% for their warranty, and get less than 50% back when you plan to sell it due to their horrible resale value since warranty is tied to 1 VIN.

Hope you make the right choice
