Yes you did meet me there. I had a tune & later an Invidia downpipe plus another tune done at HpF in Dandenong. https://www.hp-f.com.au/
No issues at all. Although, given COVID lockdowns, I have been driving a bit less. I don't do stupid things like launches, but I will put my foot down sometimes & the car goes as well as it did the day I got the work done. My only fear had been what I thought was a lack of a CVT transmission cooler, but after visiting and enquiring about 3rd party CVT coolers, a mechanic shone a torch though my grill and pointed out that Levorgs come with CVT coolers. Wasn't I the dickhead. I think they are the same ones the S4 WRXs have.
After a performance tune - plus about 15KW at the wheels, a much better torque curve (got rid of that dead spot at 4k or so) & better fuel economy when driven normally. After a new downpipe and an updated tune - another about 13k at the wheels for a total of 27 or 28kw, and slightly worse than standard fuel economy
Yes, just a different downpipe and a revised tune. Nfi what that means in terms of stages. HPF had their standard packages then which included an air intake. I was sceptical of the benefits of that. They did put a different airfilter with the first tune & up the fuel to 98. I was told by them a downpipe would give better performance benefit than a cat back exhaust, (I was not interested in noisier mufflers) so I took their advice & the updated tune & dp was cheaper than their package with a cat back exhaust and new air intake.
