alright so i called my local dealership who i bought my balt from a year ago and they qouted me $525 for just labor and install! with a $140 labor rate? wtf thats some insane **** i live in the west burbs of chicago so any one around here got the stage 2 how much u pay for for the install?

 

There's a few threads on this already but I payed $250 for the install and flash.
You shouldn't pay anymore than $300. But, I guess different dealers have different prices especially if they feel they are the only ones people are going to come to.

 

yeah i know i did a search and figured more than 300 was sick, but i wanted to see what the chicago area people payed for and maybe go to a differant and more reasonable dealer, lol.

 

Try going to the chevy dealer in orland park on LeGrange road. The name of the dealership is phillips. I didnt get anything installed there, but they advertise stage kits and the dealership is pretty damn big, I am sure they have done quite a few cobalts and can get you done for cheeper than most others!

I paid $216 for my install

 

they quoted me nearly 600 for my install, and thats when i said F THAT!!!

 

i paid 138 for install.

 

some dealers charge more then there normal hourly rate for GMPP intstallations. So $140 may be there rate for that. Here in FL it was $100per hour, however it really shouldn't take someone that knows what there doing more than 2.5-3hrs to complete it. They will most likely have to remove the S/C to change the pulley. Sometimes though, dealers qoute you a high price because they haven't had any experence installing the kit, and have no idea how long it will take. get a qoute somewhere else. I think you can check a saturn dealership as well seeing that the ION REDLINE and The SS are brothers from another Mother.

 

Paid 160 for install and 550 for the kit itself, keep looking at other dealers.
