From what i've heard when the stage 2 kit should raise the redline, however im still redlineding at 65, did i hear wrong or is something wrong here

 

Did you get the proper reflash at your dealer ...

 

stage 2 comes with a computer reflash that puts the redline at 7000rpm...you better get it back to the dealer or whoever installed it...

 

^thats what i was thinkin, i mean i didn't specify about a reflash, but i assumed that it came with the installation

 

where did you get the kit from? GM? they have to install the injectors, install the pulley and hub on the S/C, and then reflashed the PCM to calibrate for the injectors and pulley and to up your redline to 7K. I'm really starting to get sick of posts like this...GM needs to tighten up...THEY SHOULD KNOW THIS ****!!!!

 

i bought the kit at CED and took it to a local dealorship (Jim Clark), i might have to have a word with them about the reflash

also, without the reflash does this effect the output of the pully/injectors??

 

Def. do that soon....dont hotrod the car...you might mess something up...

 

holy f*ck, i can't believe this ****, since then i have taken it to the track and had about 11 runs, this is bullsh*t

 

lol damn. the pully should make you boost more...what are you boosting? as for the injectors, not sure, but they are probably still running on the stock tune which is for 34lbs...the stage 2 is 42lbs

 

OMG, i cant believe you didnt blow it up. you should be redlining at 7,000 rpm with stage 1 and 2

 

^damn, i dont know what i would do if that happened, they are about to get a friendly phone call

 

yea that happened to my friend and his car was running sluggish cuz they forgot the flash but after the flash it was fine

 

called them back, and am having it done wednesday, but i am truely dissappointed, i could have easily messed something up without the reflash especially since i took it took to the track

this would also explain my CEL that has been on for "running too rich" the computer hasn't been calibrated for the higher injectors,

so does anyone know if this effects my times??? because i have pretty dissappointing times at the track (15.1) or is this just a result of poor driving and bad traction???

 

you SHOULD see sub-15second times...somewhere in the mid 14's id say. depends on the air up there, the ambient temp outside, and your driving ablility

 

well the track was pretty crappy, prepped poorly, and the temp was 86-90, but i felt like on my good runs i shoulda been going faster than a 15.1

 

At least the engine rebuild would be covered by the warranty.

 

on test and tune nights the times are off we don't have a very good track. there was a ss/sc down there he was stock and was running 15.3

 

You will be ok you are just running rich. I highly doubt you would blow the motor.

 

man this same thing just happened to me and im having a hard time to get the dealership to reflash it the right way and they throw away the paper that had the number on it and they didn't even give me back my old fuel injetors or my old pully and they didnt even but my cool little plastic cover that says supercharged on it that covers the fuel injectors :'( im still mad about it!!1

 

ya, daily driving wont really affect anything, but i was just worried about when i was at the track, don't like running my car witha smaller pully and different injectors without a tune,

wow, i have the number if you want it, but thats bullsh*t those parts are yours, you should demand you want them back, thats money man

 

your paper with the number wont help him, they each have their own authorization code that has to be called in to GM.

 

just thought id add im sitting in the heart of the enemy right now lol, they've tried to get me with the free doughnuts and juice but i must resist, they're finally reflashing my car right now and hopefully they will do it right but we'll see i guess, damn its boring in their lounge

 

lucky you they have had my car for a while i think last saterday and all they have to do is reflash it and they still havent done it i would be guessing they can't find my papers with the right numbers on it dumb asses they are really starting to **** me off!!!

 

Hey congrats bro. Glad to see it's almost done. It's going to be like a whole new car when you drive her off the lot.
