The only mod I have is the air box mod.I plan on adding in this order...

1. Cx Heat exchanger
2. Intense stage 4 (with Stage 2 belt)
LSJ-MSS-625 - Machined Gen V M62 Supercharger Snout
LSJ-INT-SCO - INTENSE™ Supercharger Oil (8oz)
GVC-GMT - GM Gasket Maker
LSJ-IMH-090 - INTENSE™ LSJ Modular Pulley System
LSJ-IMP-270 - INTENSE™ 2.70" pulley
LSJ-STP-630 - Oversized Supercharger Tensioner Pulley
LSJ-ASP-3922 - Autolite® Copper Core Spark Plugs
LSJ-FIS-600-4 - Siemens 60 pound/hour Fuel Injectors
LSJ-CIH-102155 - Casper's LSJ Injector Wiring Harness
INTENSE™ Stage 4 LSJ PCM

3.Then work on full exhaust
4.Dyno tune

Does that sound like a good set-up?

 

I would add some gauge's such as a Wideband & Pyro in there before the S4 Kit

 

If you go Stage 4, you are going to want to get a tune ASAP so not to destroy anything.

 

Canned tunes can mean disaster, just make sure you can monitor everything.

 

whats the gasket maker for?

 

It comes with the kit prob for the S/C-Intake Manifold mating but you dont need it, well if you did I didnt use it

 

looks fine but are you doing the tunning or is intense? i here that intense tunes are ****. but then again i don't have and intense tune. just a few friends that do and all of them have something wrong with their ****.

 

Putting the SC back together....
They sent out a machined snout, and you have to send in the old one as a core.

At the OP; that kit is fine and dandy, but see if you can; get a 2.8 instead. It's a bit safer, and you don't have to machine the snout or anything.

 

it's called high temp silicone. or honda bond. lightly applied. none of the paper "whoopsies" gasket crap.

 

Would the CA stage 4 be any better? Stage #4 : 2.6 ZZP Interchangeable Pulley system , 2 step colder ngk IRIDIUM spark plugs , GM shortened belt , ZZP Adjustable Tensioner , 60# Siemens Injectors , Injector Wiring Harness, Stage #4 Retune. I can't really decide what to do. Are our cars bad enough to really worry about the warrenty?I was also considering GM stage 2 with a 2.9 ..my local chevy shop told me install would be 2.5 hrs and $172.50. What would be a ballpark figure for gains on that?Later on if I had GM stage 2 if I wanted a smaller pulley and 60's would I have to get a new tune?

 

meth/alcohol injection

 

Dual Pass Option B

 

i agree with ^^^

 

The install time is not a bad price, but its a waste of money if your going to get a smaller pulley and 60lb injectors. Neither of which come with it and the tune wont work so...

and intense canned tunes are **** from what gets said on here.

 

dont do a stage kit

get 60s, 2.8 and a custom tune

 

Any word on the Cobalt Addiction tunes? ... I wouldn't figure all canned tunes could be so bad considering thats what the GM stage 2 is. I would only need the tune until I get full exhaust afterwards and then have it dyno tuned. Not that it really matters but I also only drive this car on the weekends.

Also where would be a good place to look for tunning shops in VA?

 

If your going to get tuned then there is no point in getting a stage kit. Do a 2.6, small belt, meth, a custom tune and full exhaust will get you where you want to be,

 

i think a 2.6 is too small and can over spin the sc
2.7 is a good pulley with the meth, and will give you plenty of boost

 

If I do my own kit I would have to get it tuned before I drive my car AT ALL after adding the pulley and 60's? If so would I have to get it tuned after exhaust and whatnot again?

 

I love how every one says intense tunes are ****. I love my intense tune. I have never had any problem with it.

 

Hmm I would stay away from Intense stage kits.
