whats up guys,

well i finally bought me a stage 2 kit.. so i start calling around to find a dealership to install it. i called 7 dealerships...5 of them said that they wont attempt to put a stage 2 on my car due to past installs. 1 said they would call me back and never did. and the other said they would do it but it would cost 400.. what can i do besides pay the 400 to do it?

 

Attempt to do it yourself and have the dealership reflash it and/or have someone that knows how to do that stuff help you or do it for you for cheap

 

Rent a pulley puller from ZZP and install the kit yourself. The install is very easy if you read the directions and take your time. Then just drive the car to the dealership for the reflash.

 

400 was cheap considering the 650+ i got quoted.

if you want your warranty spend the 400, if not do it yourself its not difficult

 

400 is RE-DONKULOUS!!!

I paid $200 total (with the new S/C gasket that got mess'd up)!

 

wow i paid $392 with tax. FTL

it was the cheapest dealer within a 1 hr driving range i called every dealer in a 50 mile raduis you could think of... Still had to drive an hr tho...LAME

 

yah i paid 220 for mine...Do the drive it shouldnt take them long to install it...And i would keep the warranty man so take it in to the dealer

 

i paid 190

 

i found a dealership that says they will do it for 170... so i will be getting my stage 2 put on this week

 

make sure it includes the re-flash and make sure you get all your old parts, and tools back

 

My dealer quoted me 266...max of three hours labor but will charge me less if it doens't take that long. When the funds are available I'll be setting up an appt there unless the other chevy dealer in Spearfish quotes cheaper...

 

The only problem with that is; it's the re-flash that "they" don't wan't to do........the rest is pretty basic.

My dealer spent most of their time trying to get the propper download from GMP.

 

drive out to california this weekend and have doc do it and give u a custom hp tune.... thats ur best bet!

 

I paid 325 @ blossom chevy. I dropped the car off around 4pm and they pulled it right into the tech's lift... went back the next day at 11am and the car was finished...plus I had to rent a car so that was a extra 40 bucks

 

A little of topic anyone know how much dealership is chrging to fix sycro's on the trannys my second gear is out and no other place wants to touch it


THANKS RYAN

 

get some dirt on those hands boy

 

Would you care to share what dealership?

 

try a saturn dealership they might be able to help

 

what part of ky you from? its a place called alex mongtomery in mt. washington.

hey not a bad idea, it will only be about a 30 hour drive..j/k

i would if i didnt want to keep the warranty. that is the whole purpose of having the dealership do it...right?

 

Let me know how it turns out.
Mt Washington is pretty close to me.
Thanks

 

STAGE 2 installed.........pick it up tomorrow........kind of excited...like a kid on christmas eve....lol..

 

My dealership quoted me 564 installed. Thats with all the parts for stage 2. Do they have to order that ****? doubt theyd have the parts lying around..

 

They quoted you $564.00 to order the stage 2 and install it for you?

If so thats like a $14.00 install charge, haha, DO IT!!!

 

yeah thats a hell of a price.......i paid 430 for the kit and 170 for install.. so i got mine done for 600..........and let me tell you it is worth every dollar....i can tell quite a bit of difference.
