GM Stage Kit Release ...up to us

We need to get everyone who cares about the stage kit over here http://www.gmtunersource.com/index.p...balt-lnf-power

To post a comment so GM will speed up getting it out the door. GM Big wigs are gunna be monitoring the comments so take 2 minutes and register then let them know we want it .

This is pure speculation on my part but , GM could be gauging interest about whether or not to release the kit at all. Just my opinion .


****I know this is on the front page but i wanted to make as many as possible see this . I know i don't check the front page very often .

Haha, that's awesome after all the hype. Now they are like hmm.... do we really want to make this, is it that profitable? Don't get your hopes too high. I wish they would maybe try to figure out why my car has killed 13 map sensors on a stock car, with less than 4k mi.

I really don't know much about their gay computers on their cars, but I swear that gay learndown is what fried my ECM in the first place.. they got me a new one, put it in and tuned it.. to be even weaker than before with 10 miles/gallon more fuel consumption.. car's still not bad, but she's broken in now after a long road trip and now pulls hard again, except that it's only boosting between 13 and 14 psi max due to learndown.. totally gay!! Still spiking 260 lb/ft of torque and then u see the learndown kick in and say **** you lol. Car would get pretty crazy with a simple stage I kit and bolt-ons.. I see 12's easily.

I don't know about "12's.". That seems a little generous.

whoever said you were?

I'm just stating that I don't think we should have to BEG for something that has been promised, will be over priced and will be underpowered.

If it's not ready to order by 8/1, screw the Gm kit.

All I can say is I'm glad I did not wait because it seems like these stage kits are nothing but a mythical beast.

AND there is no reason for the release to be up to anybody but gm. They are losing so much business due to the constant delays. Why should anyone have to beg for a overpiced tune that they can't get out?

Hmm...has anyone ever thought that GM could be watching these forums too, and see how many people are willing to throw their warranty away with aftermarket tunes? I bet the bean counters are having a hay day figuring out if GM will earn more money by selling the kit or save more money by people voiding their own warranties.....

If that's the case then the stg kit will never be released. I make enough that if I smoke my motor then I will ante up and eat it. If GM thinks for one moment that I "need" their tune then they are sorely mistaken, it's just means that they will lose another one of their loyal customers.

Only thing I want from GM is their upgraded intake. Seems like they would be the ones to get the whole fuel trim problem solved... Other than that, I am Trifecta tuned already, and I have the CIA catless downpipe. I don't know why the hell I have to register to post a comment. Are we sure that it's not just a ploy to up the member count at that other site?

Yes! BWAHAHAHAHA! And we would of got away with it to if it weren't for you meddling kids!

No, it's just how the site it setup. If you don't have an account SPAM bots will just destroy the site with SPAM comments.

Also, GM guys don't really have time to scour forums to check demand so that thread is a one-stop shop to give the guys that work on the kit a ability to hear your voice.

That thread is up to 80+ posts.

That is about 2x more than the most popular thread.

Shhhhh. Do you hear that GM? It's called a cry for help.
