The PDF on page 3 states this kit is for the 07-08 Solstice/Sky and 08 Cobalt/HHR only
Anyone know any 09 SS guys that have their car tuned to see if they can go above the 255kpa limit?

Doubt it...the reason the document probably doesn't list 09 is because there were not out when they started the emissions approval in the state of California (that is what the document is in regards to).

I read that they have HCCI working all the way up to 90kpa so far! I wouldnt count it out. Defintly not of 09' but in the short future. From what I understand 90% of the hardware required is already in the LNF.

This place is worse than Wall St. One person says one thing they think is correct and there is mass panic and everyone believes it and starts saying how it is true...
A while back I posted that I HOPE GM makes an announcement about the Stage Kit at SEMA and how people are going crazy saying how it is going to be released there...

I wish I could of gotten the LCD screen(air/feul,boost, etc) in my 08 SS/TC but it wasn't an option.
Is this difference only on 09 Cobalt SS/TCs?
Does it include all Cobalts, or only LNF Cobalts,HHR, SKY, Solstice?

What mods do you think will work well or ok with this stage kit? Like say i get a stage kit and then wanna do the downpipe, or the exhaust would this change the car to where i would need a aftermarket tune? From my understanding it would be jus like now except the ecu stops the hp or torque level at 315 instead 260. So putting any mods on would not really do anything for ya? I would like to get the stage kit and downpipe, this would not cuase it to be retuned im thinking, and maybe charge pipeing. I realize i wont see any benefits from mods without further tuneing. Does this mean stage 1 kit is worthless if say i was to go after market exhaust , cold air intake ect?

Hopefully SEMA comes to the rescue next week...

yeah and i think he is right... i think its gonna be just like the stock hp and tq limits except the numbers are higher so it prolly won't do anything putting aftermarket stuff on... i mean look at steve's tunes... hes makin crazy numbers without putting anything on these cars either so we know its possible... guess we'll just have to wait to see till gm brings out the plans!
