OK so I was at the Autorama here in Detroit and the Gm performance parts were there. I talked with the rep and asked them if anyone could do the install of the kits and would it still be warrantied if the install was not done by a dealer ship. He told me that we can install it and just take it to the dealership for the reflash and the warranty would start after that. I was also able to grab photos of how to install the new kits but I don't know how to attach the photos. Can someone tell me how so I can post them.

 

send them to me and I'll host them:

is it even out yet?
the stage kits?

 

no........

 

I just sent the photos for AlphaJaguar5 to post

 

Did you happen to find out if its 1 reflash for both kits or 2 seperate.

 

pics

 

Where's the pics?

 

would the dealer do the reflash for free if u install the kit urself?

 

thats my question...wouldnt that be funny if you installed it yourself...then they still charged you the labor charges just to reflash...

 

Think about this question, please.

 

By Law they can only charge services rendered.

 

and you would expect otherwise??
WOT

 

The reflash takes time and any dealer you go to you pay an automatic 1 hour minimum for any work done....so as long as the reflash takes less than an hour that is all you would pay. Then the stage 2 kit only lists a 1.5 hour install so you are only gonna save about 40 bucks or less installing it yourself and risk breaking something.....that you are responsible for afterwards if you do damage something. 40 bucks just doesn't seem worth it to me.

 

how is the reflash done anyways?
they hook the obd2 up and press some buttons?
or do they replace a computer chip or ecu

 

I got the pics and I'll upload they'll be up for view in 5 seconds

 

They plug into your car via obdII and flash the pcm.

Several procedures have to be performed to ensure a clean and error-free flash.

 

Here's a close up of both the dyno's

 

5 seconds huh?...... liar lol

 

After seeing those dyno charts, all you guys who waited to get these kits, well i hope you get better results than what they show.

 

It looks like it includes a modular pulley.

Leads me to believe there still might be a stage 3 in the works.

 

I meant to change that to minutes before I hit submit but I guess my keen jaguar eyes missed it

 

Hmmm that definately isnt a GM publication. Did that come out of some Sport Compact on-line rag or something??
WOT

 

so their stock car dyno'd 205??

 

How So WOT?

It was from a GMPP Booth
