How bad would the car perform before the reflash

Just curious what anyone thinks if you perform the Gm Stage 1 and 2 yourself and drive to the dealer ship, if you will feel a difference or will it just f**k the car up untill you get the reflash.

i don't see a problem... a pulley (rather small) and a smaller belt, and injectors before reflash... i see no problems.... some people are running different injector with just a smaller pulley with no ecu work... i see no difference... maybe just a cel...

I drove my Z24 Cavalier to the dealership after I installed the supercharger with the new injectors and smaller pulley before I had it reflashed to even know it had the supercharger. Just drive very slowly and keep it under 3000 rpm.

Just don't drive like a bat our of hell and you won't have a problem. If you stay within the stock boost range the computer probably won't even recognize the changes

Basically it's reprogramming the ECU to account for the diferent parts.
