Hey guys, I'm a newb and just got my cobalt and really like it so far. When I bought it the owner included the stage 2 kit he had bought but had not installed yet (its still in box with all parts sealed and paperwork). I went to check with the closest dealership (im in southern ohio) they quoted me almost 500 to ONLY install the kit. This seems like a lot. Is there anyone that has had their stage 2 kit installed in southern or central OH, or know of a dealer who can do so? I think the dealership quoted me this because they said they have never done one before, and that scares me as well. If anyone has any experiences they would like to share with their stage 2 kit installed (good, bad, mpg, performace, etc.) I would really appreciate it, as I cant afford to have my car breaking down and hope it doesnt harm the reliability of it. It will be a daily driver for years to come. Thanks in advance!

 

where do you live at in southern ohio? how close are you to portsmouth?

 

i live in portsmouth, lol.

 

what color is your balt?

 

so no ones in ohio with a stage 2? hrm...

 

just ask if it's ok if you use their phone to call GM and get the labor estimate, cause you heard it is only 2.5 hours at standard shop rate.

 

Didnt work...

 

TERRY LEE CHEVY IN CINCINNATI (KINGS AUTO MALL)....3 HOURS -----$288

THIS IS WHAT I WAS TOLD ON 4-27-07

 

thanks!, will definately check it out!

 

Hey whats up when I went to get mine done it cost me around 450 but I know people getting them done much cheeper than that but believe me you will see a huge difference with the kit. In my opinion I would have paid 500 for it if I ahd to. I got mine put on by a dealer in Milford and oh yeah make sure that they know what they are doing it took them 3 days for my kit LOL

 

Spitzer Chevrolet in Canton, Ohio may be able to hook you up. Getting mine done there as soon as my kit comes in. Ask for Blaze and that Shane sent ya.

 

could be worse... i got mine for 250. i wonder if they have already installed it before on other cars?

 

I paid $176.14 at Byers Chevrolet in Dublin outside of Columbus, The called GM for the labor which was 2hrs.
