Stage 2 or wait?
Stage 2 or wait?
Well I have the money now for stage 2, and my dealer said they can get me one in as soon as 3 weeks.
Should I wait for a stage 3? Or just order the stage 2?
Is stage 3 coming anytime soon? Thanks.

Yes go with stage 2. You won't be sorry. Stage 3 won't be out for a while and it's not covered under warrany. So go stage 2. If you decide to go stage 3 in the future you will have the correct hub from your stage 2.
Order the Intense Stage 4 for the same price and get a custom tune made specifically for your car. Every single one is different. You will make more power also. To hell with the warranty. The dealer won't warranty 3/4 of the stuff you will break anyhow.

Here is a thread that backs this claim. This guy has an intake with his Intense kit and it needed a custom tune.

Who the **** are you calling ******* you peice of ****? Go **** yourself. It's little bitches like you that ruin threads and talk **** when they're not in front of someone like a little bitch. Go play with dady's car and get off the forums looser.
Intense only does custom tunes if you are there in person jack off. The normal intense kit doesn't include intake and exhaust tunes.

Guy's....guy's please, lets stop this non sense Right now! Or am locking this thread right away.
If you are concerned with the warranty then go with the stage 2.
If you don't care about the warranty. buy a set of 42.5 # or 60 # injectors, a 2.8" pulley, a smaller belt like stage 2 uses, and have a custom HPTune done specific to your car.

You want your warranty then YES, go Stage 2. You will be happy you did. I enjoyed Sage 2 when I got mine until the power bug crept back into my mod plans.

Stage 2 performed like a champ on the Coquahallia. Mountians made no difference in power that I noticed.

Stage 3 has no warranty. I doubt there will be anything else GM will put out for the Cobalt that is covered. IMO, stage 2 is the max for them.
