Just bought a GM Stage 2
I found it on ebay for $310!!!! New hub w/bolts, New Belt, pulley has 2 scratches, 42# injectors and harness has 800 miles on it. How much would a dealer Flash cost me?

I was going to do this but i found out that you can't get flashed from the dealer no matter what unless you buy the kit. Just get a tune from OTTP. He sent me a gm stage 2 tune.

They will not give you a tune just for fun....
When you buy the stage kit, it comes with a code that the dealer uses to authenticate the GM flash...
once the code is used, it CANNOT be used again...
they cannot just give you a tune, or a code... They can only give you one if you give them the code..
Looks like your going to have to spend about 100-150 on getting a HPtune.
Your car will NOT run correctly with larger injectors and no tune.

When u buy online, all the options are right there... You basically just give them a mod list...
OTT does the same thing as well..
You have the choice of sending in your PCM, or having them send you one... Its MUCH LESS of a hassel just to send them your PCM and have them send it back.
