Clutch feel and engagement is going to change too.

The difference is the amount of hp/torque they can hold, increasing with each stage.

The torque rating goes up which is the holding power and the streetability usually goes down- If you are going to be using it for mainly everyday use and not much track use I would just go with a stage 1 as it will be plenty. I went with a stage 3 and it is overkill but I will have peace of mind.
