Mine was installed today... SAME THING!!! can't really get past 6500 rpm. I have an 05 though... and it isn't the same as hitting the rev limiter before... it's different now. It just stumbles really hard. I'm gonna go play with it now.
But boy does that SC SCREAM!!!

Man! That sucks! 6500 rpm is too low, first gear sucks unless you can go to 7k then it still sucks just a little less. If I were you I'd have steve raise the limiter to 7k.

Another option, go to this website http://tis2web.service.gm.com/tis2web enter your VIN and check the code for the VCM, it should be 12605261

SO I go in this morning... and the tech comes over... "Lemme check that out" (The kit that was still in the box.)

"****, he's not putting a supercharger ON... he's got some sort of upgrade type thing."
They thought I was ADDING a S/C to my car! They've worked on my car at least 5 times for stupid cobalt stuff we've all had... how could they not have known?

That's disturbing that he didnt' notice there was a pulley in there. O.o
If the new reflash keeps the same power level without reving the car as hard then dont' bitch about it. YOu just gotta shortshift from first into second. Or maybe there's a few thigsn you gotta do before it allows 7000RPM operation as was stated earlier by BACK2GM. Hell the stage kits foul the cats because tehy run too rich, so maybe they leaned them out a shade. Got the HP up there cause of it.

HP is torque times RPM...I'm sorry, but there's no way that GM's tune is going to make the same power at 6450 as it used to at 7000. That's a lot more torque that it has to make with the same boost as before. I mean, the stage 2 pulley is only 10 more hp than the stock one at 7000 rpm...something is definitely wrong here. Let's hope it gets fixed, soon...
I want to get stage 2 by the end of the year, but if I'm not going to get 7000 rpm out of it, then **** it.
