None. The bag may be slightly different due to different manufacturer, but the only thing that being a different stage changes is the charge. The charge aka "bomb" in a dual stage is wired to change the speed of detonation depending on the speed of a collision. So when you get in a high speed accident, the airbag will deploy at at faster rate than if it were a low speed. collision. In a single stage, to airbag deploys at the same velocity regardless of the speed of the collision.
