definitely doesn't have the right flash on it.

I can get to 7200 with Stg 2, cause when I shift, it bumps up a couple hundred.

who kows what damage might have happened since you ran so lean for so long....or rich i guess, since theres the injector swap.

if you get any clogged cats, make em pay for it....make them agree to do it when you go in to get the tune

Very good advice. Be very stern about the redline and make sure they agree to log what they did wrong. It deff. could cause other problems. Good luck.

Im sure you have the reflash or your car would/should run like ****.
Try doing a third gear pull and see if you got to 6800

yeah...it limits at 6,500rpm in third as well...and they cant get me in till monday. this one guy i know says that the cat shouldnt be messed up after two weeks, since i'm not throwing a code or anything...now i'm just worried that they might have screwed other things up...like did they even put in the bigger injectors? smaller pulley? **** man...
but it does pull harder than the stock ss/sc i test drove...i dont know...this sucks...

still get it in writing that you were driving without the proper flash and it was gm's mistake. never know what will happen down the road.

Aren't the harness clips on GMS2 injectors green? And the pulley will have those blue bolts. Stock is a press-on pulley...

FOR LOOKING AT YOUR OWN CALIBRATIONS:
here is the gm site

http://tis2web.service.gm.com/tis2web

1. enter your vin #, then click GET CAL ID
2. SELECT "PCM/VCM Powertrain/Vehicle Control Module
3. Click NEXT button
4. Click Complete History Button
5. New window appears with all the part #'s, double check them to check yer reflash
6. Print the new window page that appears and bring it to the dealership, explaining yer flash is outdated and causing you drivability issues.

I dont understand how you can have stage 2 installed, with a 6500 rpm limit. and not have thrown codes????

every time we have seen this prior, the car runs like **** without the reflash and throws codes.
