what about just having the OS and sensors and just do a custom tune? would you be able to push better numbers without going to the dealer for a reflash?

The New OS, can be a big deal, depending on the upgrade to it.
Windows 95 vs Windows Vista

YES thats a complete Dramatization, but you get the point, software could open up new possibilities in the tuning aspect.

We are 40 days into the 30 to 90 day window it usually takes for California to issue the Executive Order that give the kit 50 state emissions approval. So it could be any day now.

Now when I buy the parts, can I go to any GM dealer? Or does it have to be a GMPP GM dealer? Because the closest GMPP certified dealership closest to me in 75+ miles away from my place yet I have 3 chevy dealers within 10 miles of my house.

you should order the parts from CED as they will be cheaper than the dealer. Then any dealer can flash the tune.

Ok thanks,
I've looked at CED and GM Parts Direct and it comes down to whether or not you want an Ecotec Shirt for $12 bucks. CED is $562. and change with the shirt and GM Parts direct is $550 even without the shirt.

It's like an e-hump.
I kid, it's just a new comment that draws attention to the thread by re-highlighting the thread and moving it to the top in the forum list.

I think I'm about done... I want CP but other than that I don't really need anything. I'll have to buy some summer rims but far as performance wise I doubt I'll be getting right away

with the GMP tune the learn down will be taken off. it even says so on the GM Tunersource Website. Also the kit can be bought for 100$ cheaper on crateenginedepot.com . and i already called the dealer and they said as long as it was a GM part which it is. that they would install it for me. However they charge 2hrs worth of labor time. However it has to be done by the dealer in order to maintain ones warranty which im sure most of you know

this has been talked about multiple times..

time is most likely:
1 hour for part install
1 hour for flash

You do NOT need to have the dealer install the part to stay under warranty. The gmpp engineer Bill already stated this.
