Make sure that when they do the install they do not use lock tight on the pulley bolts and make sure to get your bolt tool back from the tech just in case you decide to change pullies you will need it..

You will notice the difference. And then about 3 days later will want more . Modding is a never ending thing, I am learning this now.

Im the same way. I had my stage 2 for a week, got used to it, then thought the car needed more. Make sure you get a cai. When your spinning your supercharger to 15 psi, you will only grin with the whine.

.....I know how that feels...lol...I have had my car for a month and ten days and already put $1500 into it...and I still want more...Its only been a week since I had stage 2 installed and its already slow again, so new pulley tomorrow!!! and hopefully CAI soon...


Anyway, there is a huge difference between stock and stage 2, you will be very impressed.

It's a whole different car . Make sure you get your security bits back for the pulley bolts . I would only give them the socket bit and keep the other just incase they say GM makes them throw em out . Try and check your 7K rpm rev limiter after a few miles to make sure they flashed it correctly.

The other thing i would do is break the pulley bolts loose as soon as you get home so that you can get them off in the future incase they use locktite.

buy it off crateenginedepot.com and then install is between $200 and $300 depending where you go. So total is $550 + $300= $850

From what I hear it's worth every penny. I can't decide whether I should run the S2 pulley or a 2.9 though. (advantages vs. disadvantages) I hear the S2 tune is pig ruch, but I don't want to blow the poor car up either. lol
