Chicago advice on flash tune

What do you guys know about GIAC or ESS? I guess I am leaning toward an ESS Stage 2, but what should I keep in mind?

I think a couple of us have had tunes, what are your experiences?

This will be my first jump, and I intend to keep my 135i stock through the warranty period.

Thoughts, advice?

You'll find that GIAC pretty much dominates the flash tune market on the N54, I'm sure there will be a number of members that can chime in with their experiences on stage 1.
