Same with if one gets DP's too.
With my old Cobb tune for my 335, you'd pick the Stage 1 tune if you had no extra hardware, stage 1+ with a FMIC or 2 with DP's, and 2+ with both.
With a piggyback tune like JB+ or Racechip, I don't think you can do any of that, other than just upping boost (see Racechip manual below), and I don't think either one can automatically adjust for hardware?

What about the JB Stage 1 or JB4?

I don't want to add hardware if the tune can't fully take advantage of it. |
For Flash there is Bootmod3 and MHD, I'm personally a BM3 guy because its been in the Fxx series platform longer and is the only one that works with iPhone + Android + Laptop. MHD you need and can only use an Android device with a really old slow cable. Also, BM3 advantage is they support every ROM version of cars, MHD flashes every car to the same version (incompatible versions of softwares will be pita in the long run).
All Stage1 tunes are meant for stock cars, but BM3 there's an option to use any map and turn/on off the CEL for catless DP.
All Stage2 tunes are meant for cars with Downpipes and FMIC
Correct piggyback will not be the best because they only add boost, where the flash adjusts more parameters for better performance.
