    i hear the stock boost control solenoid is not very good.
    seems the gm solenoid is a good cheap upgrade.
    now you need a tune with this? if so
    will a cobb stage 1 or stage 2 work with this?

    No, you will need a custom tune which you should do anyways. The Cobb maps are garbage.

    Stock BCS is good until you reach a certain boost level. I am unsure of what that level is, but I can find out if needed. For stock boost levels, stage 1 and 2 and slightly beyond, the stock BCS is fine.
