My buddies went to NOPI in Atlanta and got to see the Stage 3 kit on the dyno. It laid down 250whp without the nitrous. I'm not sure what type of dyno it was.

Here's an idea for the guy that ordered the kit. You'll be taking one for the team here, but you still get to use your kit. Post the tune for the PCM on HPTuners files library or whatever it's called. Then people can rock their non GM parts and spray their bottles without ever having to buy GM's stuff if they so desire. Better yet they can buy an extra PCM from Intense and flash that one, and swap if necessary so their VIN isn't condemed to GM warranty death. :twothumbs

so does it void the warranty? please tell us everything we need to know about it:twothumbs

BCobaltSS 12-14-2006 10:04 PM

In the instructions for the build book it states that stage 3 pulley is 72mm which works out to be a 2.85'' pulley

I just called the GM dealer that we deal with here at the tire shop I works at in Canada. I asked about the intercooler end plate #88958721 thats on the GM Crate Engine site, they want 707.50 retail and 566.00 our cost. Thats totally crazy! Why would their price be so high? The bottle #22630381 they only want $55.32 so thats not too bad. Also do you guys know where the air purge line goes to? I can't quite tell if it hooks up some where or is just there to bleed the air and then it just stays there.

i I can do the bottle cheaper, in stock if interested

BlackSS/SC 12-15-2006 12:49 PM

This is in Canada too BTW, so even if you can do it cheaper the shipping and duty and shit will probably make it more. Thanks for the offer anyways.

So does anyone know if the end plate with the extra coolant resivior(with the stock heat exchanger) is better than having just the bigger heat exchanger?

chevysalesman614 12-15-2006 05:34 PM

what size is this stage 3 pulley? anyone know what the gains are for GMPP Stage 3?

martinsmu 12-15-2006 10:22 PM

2.9. and not sure... I mean 2.9 should give you around 10, 50 shot of NOS is about 50. If you run higher octane, maybe another 10-15. So anywhere from 10-75WHP

fWdCoBaLt 12-16-2006 12:57 AM

where can i get a 2.9 that will go on the gms2 hub?

BlackSS/SC 12-16-2006 11:31 AM

Do does anyone have anything to say about the difference between running the dual pass end plate with the stock heat exchanger verus a bigger heat exchanger with the stock end plate?

Right here. Only guy I know that makes a 2.9 that fits the GM hub. I got mine from him.

Dude do u have to be the first guy on the block with the damn mistery item? you don't even know what u just ordered!!! more cash then brains

BlackSS/SC 12-19-2006 11:40 AM

So I now have the serge tank and the cap, I've looked at all the autoparts and hardware stores, none of them have a metal 3/4" Y. All they have is plastic, would you guys use plastic on there?

ask a shop to make you one. it mite cost like $20 at the most.

turboeco 12-19-2006 03:49 PM

MikeG, I'm curious did the PCM come pre-tuned?

I don't see anything about specifying your year and make, when ordering on gmpartsdirect. So does it just come with another reflash code, for taking to the dealer?

I'm sure everyone is dying for more info! Let us have it!!!


Congrats on the kit. :cssNET:
