The higher the stage for the turbo, the more power it has. But when talking about turbos, you never (at least in m experience) hear "stage 1 this, stage 2 that...", you just talk about the boost pressure. Sway bars work while cornering. When the car is turning and leans to the outside wheels, the bar will force the inside of the car to lean on the wheel, thus making the roll in the car less. A great site to find all this stuff is www.howstuffworks.com

Hope i've helped.

Yes, referring to turbo setups in stages is generally best left to the video games, as most engine buildups don't work like that. For sway bars I'll shamelessly plug my own article here at AF, and for some other great technical information I always recommend Autozine. Hope this helps, peace.
