Im just about to buy the LNF stage kit. I found the hardware for $435, brand new and unopened!!!!

The seller said hes not sure if its for the Cobalt SS though...its the right part # 19212670, so I should be all set right? He was saying something about the authorization code in the kit needing to match the calibration code??

 

If you don't buy it, let me!

 

Yea... ull be all set. Make sure it has everything in it

 

you still have to get the flash though right? or can you just install the sensors and be good?

 

You have to get the flash.

 

If you try to do just the parts its going to throw 2 CEL codes...... and put you into reduced power mode

 

I just ordered the kit, it should be here in a week, so the final countdown begins! Im going to install the parts myself, anybody thats done it have any advice or tips? I already printed the instructions, and it looks pretty straight forward. I know the tab needs to be trimmed on the sensor that goes into the air inlet duct, but anything else to watch out for?

I know itll set codes on the drive to the dealer, but as long as I drive it easy I should be fine right? Man I cant wait! Ive been waiting for this for a year and a half, since I bought the car!

 

I don't think you need to do any trimming...think that is only the HHR...I'm installing on Thursday night/Friday morning and getting the flash done on Friday morning.

Just drive it easy and you should be fine (no boost...drive it like your grandpa drives his '98 Buick Park Avenue)...

There is also a webpage with "tips" somewhere...can't remember where I saw it though...

 

Check out GMTunersource.com They have a How To.

 

Throw us a bone man. Where did you source your parts from?

 

Eh the $435 I found fell through...I f'ed that up. It was on ebay, and I thought it was a BUY IT NOW @ $435, but it wasnt. It ended up getting bid up to $515 I think.

Anyways, I just ended up going with my first plan and ordering it from my local dealer. I still got it VERY cheap though.

Im paying $500 for the hardware. I talked to the parts manager and mentioned to him that I found an authorized dealer on GMPP website that was selling the parts for $500, so he matched it!

Im hoping Ill be under $600 when all is said and done!

 

I lied...the Cobalt and HHR require some trimming...

 

hmm this whole time Ive been planning on installing myself. However, I just got off the phone with my service manager, and he may have changed my mind. He quoted me $125 for the complete install/flash. I already ordered the parts for $500, so $625 total is not bad at all. Might just save myself the trouble and have them do it.

 

Thats cool. I talked with the guys at GM Parts Direct and gave him a screen shot of the GMPP.com price and he beat it @ 499.98 shipped so spread the word.
