I just ordered mine for 230 shipped!

 

They cant just void your warranty like that, because you are protected by the Magnuson Moss Act. I took mine in with a catted downpipe and injen intercooler piping and they were cool with it.

 

Go to a different dealer, that is bullshit

 

Good deal did you get it off ebay also and use the make and offer option?

 

I made a $230 offer on the Ebay link and was declined, with a response of "Back ordered Sorry"

Update: Contacted the seller, and he is out. Says it might have more next week.

 

If anyone wants my intake I'm selling it for 280. I'm parting it out cause I'm either gunna trade it in or if someone wants to take over the payments.

 

What you getting?

 

unfortunately it's purely the dealers prerogative to be this way.

I was looking and much more serious about buying a Cobalt in the early spring of 2009, but the local dealer gave me this kind of line, and in the end I did not buy because I knew I would eventually want to do an aftermarket exhaust...

realistically, the way warranties work, is that if something breaks, and it can be legitimately tied to the aftermarket part, then that service work will not be covered by warranty;
You just need to ask around to find a dealer that is interested in getting your work.
I'd suggest finding another dealer, and going straight to the service managere to ask him/her - if they want ot have a more active service department, then they shouldn't be black balling you just because

btw, that locla dealer I told you about;
the last time I had gone in there in hopes of clarifying their standpoint on what aftermarket parts can or cannot be installed to keep drivetrain warranty... sitting on the shelf between the manager and I was the dealers copy of a magnaflow exhaust catalogue;
I aksed of that brochure meant that they will install Magnaflow kits, and still honor hte warranty - he looked at me straight in the eyes and flat out said;
"No, if any aftermarket parts are installed on the car - the warranty is void."
I agree with you - that's a complete BS stance for any dealer to have.

time to find another dealer.

 

Yeah I used the make an offer and it was accepted! That sucks if he is out all ready cause that is a really good deal. Maybe send him an email back saying if he was to keep them at that price he would sell a whole lot more!!! Also do you think he would let ya pre order one at that price untill more come in?

 

Selling the car/trading it in

 

That's strange that he is out of stock when it says there is 38 available now unless that is what he has on order from K&N and did just not receive them yet. I'm sure he would probably let people pre order for that price, that is one hell of a deal. I will let you know when I get any shipping information back from him.

 

Well I know that my source is out - has been for over a week. Since he had the majority of the run I suspect that everyone is sold out. There will be another run made but it won't be out for at least a month.

I will also say that I have mine on my car and this piece is totally worth it...

 

Back on June 14, I got an e-mail from K&N stating that their batch would be completed around 3 weeks from then. So probably looking at the first week of July-ish if things hold constant.

 

i wonder if the new batch comes with the bracket for us 08 guys...

 

I wouldn't doubt if they next batch is sold out already... We alone have 14 sold orders with them... (plus all the other 100's of places wanting stock)

seems fishy^

 

im just waiting to get mine... they are holding out cuz my apt number wasnt on the recipient address even tho none of my other parts or mail requires it... just hoping it doesn't get returned to sender.... :| will know today i'll be pissed if i have to wait longer!


EDIT: Woo Hoo!!! I get my intake today

 

let us know how you like it

 

certainly will, i plan on installing tonight... assuming there is enough light in my parking garage and work permits (im on call this week)

 

installed last night. freaking love it! the sound is so aggressive, works really well. i would recommend this intake thus far however its only been 1 night and only had time to do 1 or 2 decent pulls in 2nd. Also i have no way of data logging this intake but followed the instructions regarding filter position and all appears fine

 

oh just wait. I dont drive my car much at all so it took it a while (week or so) but after it learns it...you can tell/feel a slight difference. Now at even slight gas pedal movement you can hear the bpv and turbo spool. sucker is loud. I heart this intake

Hey did your maf sensor plug almost touch the heat shield?

 

yes. lol. I have like 2-3mm of space

 

I bought mine last night from those guys for 235$ shipped and this morning it's at 306$.... Just been lucky I guess.....

Hopefully K&N's second batch is being shipped soon. Should be this week per their last estimate.
