Is it worth the nearly 1,000 clams to upgrade to stage 2. Will I be able to notice a differance in power?

 

how bout first you click around the site and read what other people have said first. base it off what you read and what you can gain from this site.

 

Yes. Do it. You will definitely notice it.

 

stage 2 blows *****. go custom.

 

I didn't even break 700. Search around for some better deals.

 

Buy the stage1 kit from ottp,you won't be dissapointed

 

There are other things to consider. If you are under warranty and want to keep it go stage 2. If you arent get the ott stage 1 kit or just piece together your own. 60 lb injectors, 2.8 pulley, tune. did you really need to make three threads about this? lol

 

ottp stage 1 FTW

 

poor guy is gonna get really annoyed having to answer this same question 5 times a week! lol

 

use the search button!!! welcome to the site

 

ottp stage 1

 

i agree, if its under warrenty go with a gm stage 2 kit, if not skip that and go with the OTT stage 1 kit. the OTT kit will get you more power, and you wont end up wanting to replace everything later on. the only downfall is if you arent mechanicly inclined and cant install the kit yourself your going to have to find someone that can. thats one upside to the gm kit, you can drop the car off, come back pay the bill and your done.

 

Go with stage 2 if you still have a lot of warrenty left, if not then go for OTT stg.1, Also 1000 bucks is a little expensive... shop around cause there is more than one dealer who can do this for you!

 

i got 2.9 with 42lb inject and belt everything with custom tune for think 700

 

Its not somethin to debate about dude..you and ur car will love stage 2
more hp,louder whine and boost..And it shouldnt cost that much..i bought stage 2 for my old ss/sc for $480 bux and i installed it myself then got it reflashed at chevy for $85
So just do it!!!!!

keep in mind that if the kit isnt installed by a gm dealer they can void your powertrain warrenty.

 

stage 2 gm is weak for the price, the only upside is the warranty, ottp stage 1 is much better. with the gm stage 2 they give you a 3 inch pulley with 42 lbs injectors, ottp give you 60 lbs injectors with a 2.8 inch pulley for 425$

 

OTTP Stage1 FTW!!!

/lurking

 

fast98 or lsjwannabe are the guys to talk to, im telling you, and so is everyone else on this thread(almost) buy their stage package, you wont regret it

 

He wont regret if he uses the search button next time either lol dumb newb

 

i know its not cool to flame but will a stage 2 be noticed in power? wtf kinda question is that its like if i replace my 4 cyl with a 427 cobra motor will i see a difference in power. (not to be compared with cobalt) lol

 

Ottp Stage 1. Definatly No Doubt !

 

that is the quote of the day! lol

 

Maybe, I been thinking about it too. If stage II is really worth the money. Im not too mechanically inclined so i like my warranty..but one must wonder if the 700 is worth that you get. I hear nothing but positives about OTT stage 1, but my warranty wont be up till around 100k miles or 3 more years...by then to many miles to stage it I think.

I wonder...stage II or a .45...decisions decisions.

 

If your worried about warranty (like i was) stageII is definitely worth it , it a nice jump. It's not all about the HP , the 7K Redline really helps put it higher in the power band for 2nd gear.... well all gears but 2nd's the worse stock.
