I think stage 2 is better-contrary to popular belief, the motors have plenty of tourqe, espcially with low gears.

Either way, the AWD and bearings are great.

The bearings are great. The only downside is you have to pretty much disassemble the entire car to get them in.

does it come with instructions on how to install the bearings cuz if i buy i'll be too stupid to know how to do it. i assume every upgrade has instructions on how to install them but i just wanna make sure.

Each upgrade has a good large instruction sheer with written descriptions, pictures and a list of the screws that will be used. A very class act.
Makes it easy, and appears that the shack put a little thought into the whole product line.

Phew that is a relief for me. I have a question would you consider it "hard" to assemble an XMOD.
