yeah, ill probably end up doing that. i want to research some more about the car before i start doing anything too crazy lol
lol definately, resale on those arent good, unfortunate for you. and modded usually has even worse resale since people don’t know how good/half assed it is even if it is legitimately put together well.
WTF? The Stage 3 on that thing only makes 250whp? Thats intercooled and everything? umm
“When equipped with the Stage 3 kit, the engine will make about 250hp on premium fuel and 260hp on 100octane”
Weird.
Its always a nice feeling owning a new car, though, isn’t it? Maybe next summer we can run just to see whats up.
stage 3 comes with a whole new PCM. Its prepped for a 50 shot on top of the 100 octane map. So those numbers are minus :tspry:
stage 3 voids warranty
Still… I just thought that the staged upgrades had more to offer than 50hp on top of stock. weird.
Are the a lot of aftermarket options to bump it further while keeping it supercharged?

These cars dyno high stock. I wouldn’t take what GM says about power output seriously.
Not to mention people have dyno’d 270+ with setups similar to stage 3’s. Congrats on getting the car.
If I had one, I’d dump the s/c and get the turbo. Just from experience with my GP. The supercharger gives you that nice big engine torque feel but, doesnt make the power a turbo will. My opinion of why I personally think more imports run a turbo over a supercharger.
I would like to find a stage three when my current setup is ready to go. Could be interesting
chris’s orange SS dynod 270 whp @ new era with the stage 2 w/ intake/injectors/pulley… thats with the full stock exhaust pretty impressive IMO
Ohhh, I remember him.
Well, I have an IRS. Beat that, Chevy.
we had some good runs last night, I’m rather impressed with this thing in bone stock form
maybe i missed it… what color did u pick up? there was a black one going down union behind me in the evo
