does anybody know someone who could install a stage 1 mod kit in north minnesota?

i ordered one from the dealership, finally came in after over a week. Say they will get back to me when they get an estimate on labor..

days later i call back..

they don't know anyone who has done it before so they have been calling around other dealerships..

the lady said for stage 1 it should take anywhere form 3-8 hours... ummm.. wut?

cant take that long.

if theyre that clueless i don't even want them to install it.

Where are you? I'm in Duluth. Stage 1 for a supercharged, right? If you are SC you should get the full stage 2 GMPP kit. If you are turbocharged then ya a stage 1 is good.

yeah its a 2007 ss/sc probably shoulda mentioned that lol..

im in grand rapids.. would be able to drive if needed duluth is like 1 1/2 hour from here.

yeah i really should have got the stage 2 with it.. it was only like 170 more but i figured i would just do it one at a time.. didnt really wanna commit to buying the whole thing.. but now i got the cash

but really though how long should it take to install stage 1?

I'm serious. Return the STage 1. or Sell it off. It is almost no good to you. You will want stage 2 GMPP or kit from ZZP.

If you stay stage 1, the upgrade kit to stage 2: $350
Cobalt Stage 1 to 2 Performance 245 hp Upgrade Kit 17803230 - Crate Engine Depot

Stage 1 is injectors...not sure on the tune.

yeah i just ordered it today, the gm one

for both it was like a lil under $800

i see it online for about $700 so i probably payed a bit more fml

said i would wait till i get both kits to install them, guy on the phone seemed way more knowledgeable this time

said about 3 hours for the whole thing, sounds better

im excited for it

Ah there we go, thats more like it. It shouldnt take 3 hours for an experience installer that has done it before. But thats a good quote. Hardest part is getting the stock pulley off

just an FYI Parnel, If stage 1 is at least injectors than it has to have a tune. bigger injectors on stock tune is a HUGE no-no

Stage 1 is injectors and an ECU reprogram and Stage 2 adds the pulley and belt. Seems like a lot of money for the amount of power you get, but who am I to talk. I want to spend about $2500 to just get an extra 100hp crank tops. Probably about 60-70whp.

confirmed

not sure how injectors + tune= $500 but then again what do i know

price on stage 2 seemed more realistic

w/e tho, the reviews i read on here were good.

thanks for the input guys, ill give an update when i get it installed
