Your an American damn it. Take your gun and put him out of his misery

 

I am no GM mastertech and I had my superchatger off/on and swapped plugs in less than an hour, I had never worked on a 2.0 ever and I was taking my time...injectors should be easier...sounds like they included the phone time on your bill, too...I would be wanting some $ back.

 

I know you are probably tired off people saying you got ripped off so I won't go there.....

It took my dealer 3 hours..... To install stage 2.... cost $156

Just shows you some dealers are making a crap load on their shop time.

Is the redline only upped 200 rpm for a stage 1 upgrade?? Mine is 7000rpms

Congratulations!!!!!

 

if so BONUS!!!!
Nice play!

 

even if it means traveling an hour or more, i would definitely go to another dealer. they are not worth your time and aggravation.

 

I can PM you tomorrow with a GM Case # that was established to say, Yes the kits keep your warranty!

 

NJBLUE u DA MAN!

 

also does the pcm receive a signal telling it is in a certain gear(man trans)???

 

I work at a Chevy dealership...and quoted a customer 3.0 hrs labor for

the stage 2 install. GM also charges the delaership $50.00 for the VCI number

for the reprogram (reflash).

Im still waiting for my damn stage 2 kit to come in and we have had people

call already wanted theirs done.

And our dealership doesnt have a SC pulley remover/installer (had to buy my

own).

mods but no stage 2 yet

 

My dealer took 3 hours to do the install.... Dropped the car off at 8 and they called me at 11 saying it is done.

I guess it takes awhile on the phone getting the "secret code" for the install. Plus it was the first one they have ever done. They took it for a drive too just to make sure everything was ok... (that was ok with me I have known the guy for years)

Also total cost for install..... $156

 

why do they charge for the vci number that is stupid hell we paid for it so why gouge us

Nothing that I am aware of? The only way I can see is RPM and VSS (vehicle speed sensor) would give you your current gear, when you do the math.

 

hey njbues could you send me that in pm also thank you

Mine was shipped on April 5th as well from CED. I had them FedEx it to me 2-day shipping instead of UPS Ground. Should be here tomorrow I hope. If they shipped it FedEx. I gave them my account number. I will call first thing in the morning to get tracking number and hopefully to have it installed on Saturday. CED just got a batch in a couple days ago and all of them were sold because they have people in line so as they come in they are calling the customers to verify info and then shipping them out

 

I ordered from CED as well (on the 4th) and I see now that it says my order shipped on the 6th. The problem is, I haven't recieved any email confirmation, no tracking number is listed (it was listed on my last order that I placed), and no one has called to verify info with me as you stated above. I'm beginning to wonder if it really has shipped at all then.

 

I didn't get a tracking number either. That's why i'm calling tomorrow. even though i had them use fedex.

 

...atleast you guys dealers will install. Mine are ******** and won't so I have to go around to all dealerships close by and hopefully ONE will do it! I've gotten so fed up with my dealer I'll gladly pay 3 hours of install time

 

Can I buy the kit from you since no one will install it for you???

 

LOL I just set up an appointment for monday at 8

 

I wonder if each individual dealership has the right to either honor or dishonor the warrenty on your car if you get these stages installed??? What if you go to another dealer that honors the warrenty and then go back to your original dealer you bought the car from and then they say you just voided your warrenty??? Maybe that's why some dealers won't honor the warrenty. I don't think I'd talk to the parts guys about it just go to the manager/owner of the dealership and ask them for the answer.

 

Dealers get paid to do warrenty work. GM pays for the parts and then pays for the labor. The only reason they wont do warrenty work is if they feel GM wont back it. So no, the Dealer doesnt have a right to honor or dishonor the warrenty. They are just being stupid. And losing money for not installing the guys kit.

 

My first place I went to said it would void the warranty, then today I went somewhere else and have an appointment first thing monday morning. Warranty wasn't even mentioned

 

OMG F'ING GOD!!!!! I got the best one for you guys....8 hours

I mentioned people getting it done on here for 2-3 and he is "looking" into it...

What kind of bullshit is that.....

 

1.5 hrs quoted fer me

 

Stage 2 kit: $575 + tax from Gilogly Chevy
