I was wondering if anyone with Stage 2 could shed a little light on exactly how worse the fuel economy is? I like power as much as the next guy, but with these f*&#@*g high fuel prices you gotta keep it in mind...

depends on your foot i didnt notice any difference in gas mileage until i started hittign 7k every chance i got lol but if you shift like you gma youll be fine

 

i didn't see much of a drop.... and if you do see a drop right away, relax, cuz it's probably just you getting on it more often.

 

IT"S on a BOOST BYPASS. So if you stay out of boost then it really does not effect it. I went 50 miles and got 42 MPG with stage 2 and 2.8 pulley. I went a total of 70 miles on a 1/4 of tank of gas. Know I was going slow really slow. About 60 the hole way. I also had to go through 20 miles of stop and go traffic.

Do not let the fear of gas prices scar you out of stage 2. The car gets just the same or better on nice driving but if you flog it then you will pay the price. That's were the " you have to pay to play" part come in.

 

Before stage two i got about 27-28mpg, now i get like 30-32pmg and i drive 100 miles a day to and from work

 

you know how it goes you gotta pay to play.

 

No effect!

 

Copy that guys... no difference if not better economy... so i went to a web site to find out how much it is, it was about $550... but is that American or Canadian? I'm looking forward to getting that extra kick in the pants!!!

 

Thanks... i know the right foot has alot to do with it... as long as i have control on the economy, i'm good to get Stage 2... time for some giddy up!!!

 

Some say it actually gets better. I dont know i havent noticed a difference.

 

11L/100Km - I got my Stg II kit in and now mine eats gas like there's no tomorrow!
I don't take it past 5K to ofter either!

It has made my Cobalt very thirsty.

 

I have stage 2 and when checking my mpg it said 40mpg lol so it's in my sig. I think I saw 43 for a little while.

 

Sweet... i guess that settles that!
