From my not so expert opinion Vishnu looks like they have their stuff together. I am actually waiting for them to straighten up the info on their web site before I do any shopping though (they have three different descriptions of the stage sub-zero on different parts of their site). I know at least a couple people around here are running the Vishnu stage 2.

Yeah, I want to hear some feedback also. I read an awful lot of posts, here and elsewhere, and i hear a few praises and then a whole bunch of people that have components from a myriad of sources. I guess if you buy the up/dp/exhaust/engine management that you feel is the best buy in each case, you will end up with stuff made by a bunch of different companies. It does seem that you pay a bit of a premium for Vishnu's stuff. So lets hear it - is it worth it???

I think Stage SubZero and Stage 0 are great values. Even if you mix-and-match parts from other vendors, you'll have a hard time beating Vishnu's price.
You can save a few bucks by going with a different exhaust on the Stage 1, but then you'll have to worry about getting the right remap for your ECU. The benefit of going with a Vishnu exhaust is that you're guaranteed to have a map that's very well suited for it.
The Stage 2, IMHO, is a little pricey. You should be able to save $300-$400 if you shop around and buy the VF30, Injectors, and IC Hoses from other sources.
I have the previous version of the Stage 0 (with Unichip and MBC). I'm very happy with it. The new version of the Stage 0 (with remapped ECU) is even better because it looks more stock-ish, eliminates part-throttle hesitation issues, and seems to produce a little more power.
