i called up to get my stage 2 installed and he said you are aware that changing to a smaller pulley will void some parts of your warranty if anyhting happens...and i said but its gm kit and gm installed how? and he said we still warranty the parts but if something happens to your engine because of the more boost and blah blah the warranty will be voided....wtf!?!?!?!?!

 

exactly why some members call them stealerships

 

wtf why would i get it dealer installed then id rather not get it dealer installed and if anything goes wrong, change out the pulley belts and ijectors and then bring it in for the warranty work.,..theyll never know

 

go to a different dealer.

he has no idea what hes talking about.

 

X 1000000

 

X2 Take your business elsewhere

 

Tell him to call GM and ask them!

 

yeah dealers tend to pull things out of their asses when they dont know what your talking about.

 

haha yah i just went up to my dealer today to schedule to have my stage 2 kit installed and he assured me it would not void the warranty since they are installing it for me.

On a side note, he tried to charge me 420 dollars to have it installed, i told him i'm going to a different dealer, he said wait 1 minute, came back and said 200

 

lol... good idea... its just that i called like 8 dealers and none of them do the install, and the only ones that did were ramp and this other place, the other place charged 560 i dont kno wtf... and ramp said 96/hr... but he told me it voids my ****

 

drive down to ohio and have one of our dealers do it for you! lol. I dunno man, that does suck

 

im callin chevy right now to see

 

Yea you get some **** head dealers that run you in the ground thats BS!!!

I just had my chipped rims replaced with 4 new ones not replainted ones
both tranny mounts
The entire steering rack replaced
then they had to put an updated clamp on the steering rack cuz it had a clunk when I turned right & left.
By the way the rack was a new updated version cuz if you hear a clunk entering a drive way & exiting it it's the steering rack and they only replace it if the owner complains!!!!!!!!!!!

but back to my rant.
this was all replaced under warrant & I have a cai, 2.8 pulley & Ingals TD & they said it was all good so just to show that some dealers are cool as hell & some are dicks!

My Dealer rocks

 

Go to huntington chevy man. They will take care of you and the only gm stage kit that voids your warranty is stage III

 

hungtington?? is there a rep. you know of i can talk to like a name or something... someone who knows what im tlaking about...i talked to some dealers and some have no idea what it is and jus avoid answering my questions

 

talk to sean (illmatic on here) he knows the guys over there

I don't go to dealerships, I don't trust em

 

Big Bast in Seaford is good too...my dads good friend was the general manager over there for a long time...so thats another option...and in now way does it void the warranty...the guy i bought my SS/SC from is a Chevy mechanic and did it all himself, and told me everything about the warranty deal so dont worry at all about that either.

 

wtf he said i have to sign like a disclaimer...wtf

 

Dumb stealerships

 

i wish someone around long island can help me out that knows someone good and cheaper to get it intstalled by

also i got another questions... i have a mechanic i go to alot, hes a good guy, hes also GM certified or something i know, can i have him install it and still preserve warranty?? i know he does warranty work for GM people like if someone needs soemthing replaced usnder GM warranty he does it....

 

You still need the dealer to flash the car.

 

I do em

 

i kno i still need the dealer to flash it, and yea i think if i dont get the dealer to install it ill get paul to do it, but evenso, i need to preserve my warranty, getting it done by a GM cert. mechanic will that still keep the warranty? Paul, i talked to illmatic, and also called h-ton chevy, they wanted 500-550 for the install :-/

 

goddamn, I'll do it with an upgraded tune for $250. Also I have a stock GM stage II tune saved if there are ever any issues

 

I got it installed for $410 they have to remove the supercharger and use a J tool to remove the pressed on pulley. I watched them do it and wow what a bitch! Crateenginedepot.com is the cheapest place to get the stage 2.
