When upgrading from HRC Stage 1 to 2.. would it be cheaper to get these parts seperately from other places, yet be just as effective?

intercooler
black powder coated pipes
silicone hoses / clamps
9 PSI wastegate actuator

It says the upgrade from HRC Stage 1 to 2 is $799
But I want a FMIC.. which will make it $1199 I believe.

yes..the only thing on a stage 2 is an intercooler and a 9 lb. actuator. If going from stage 1, you just get an intercooler (ebay) and piping, keep the 5 lb. actuator, and get a manual boost controller to turn up boost that way.
