Gm Stage Kit Updated Status
pricing is different than availability. they can know the price, but I really think it needs to get CARB approval or some other kind of certification before it is available.

As far as calling BS on it, there has been so many of the same posts about the same thing that it sounds like misinformation so its natural to gain skepticism unless you actually reaaaaaaaad whats going on.
oh yea and did you hear? The status changed now..

The GMPP exhausts im sure aren't a stocked part either and they sure as hell are in the system.... Im not here to argue i just want hard evidence. Believe me i hope you are right and the order goes through.

Ok I'll make it simpler.......at least now when you order it, it won't cancel. Pending source stock, it should be put on order now until it is shipped. Is that any better?

Ok. Now the dealers here have the exhausts available to order but not the stage kits.... So can you see why i am so skeptical?

just my $0.02

Well lets wait till tomorrow to see if the order is cancelled and that should settle everything. I can see why people are hopeful and doubtful. take a deep breath and we will see what happens from there. sound like a plan?
I hope that it the kits are out but I dont think they are.
One thing you guys do need to remeber is that GM my not give us any kind of offical word that the kits are out.
Remember that they havent yet on any of the other parts that have been released. One day they where just there.
ANd I think that the resin the kits have been taking so long is that when GM said "by the end of the fist 1/4" They might have ment that the kits will go in to production by then. That would mean that the kits will not be at dealers for another 30-60 days depending on how much stock they want befor the reales of the kits.
Just my .02 cents.

The funny thing is with just waiting a bit too long GM could really screw them selves as we are getting closer to having a custom pcm reflash for our cars negating any purpose for the stage upgrades, except warranty and some of us are not worried about that.
The prices have been out for a couple months now. There have been a ton of threads about it. I know because I was one of the people who said that my dealer gave me a price of $750 for Stage 2 and $499 for Stage 1
Thought You all would be interested!!!!!!!!
