Well my stage kit was installed today and it is absolutely.......Oh wait I have not got the car back yet.
As I stated before I was having some warranty work done at the same time and I got a call at 7:30 tonight from the service department with "bad news". Apparently the small coolant leak and coolant smell in the cabin was not so small. I have a blown "turbo cooling system by-pass" Not exactly sure what this is, but I was told the vehicle is unsafe to drive and that the dealer could not release the car to me in good faith until it is fixed. Here is the kicker, The part is not available, so they have to have one shipped from the assembly line and it will be here Monday at the soonest. Probably fixed on Tuesday. I am in a rental 09 hhr LT until then. I got all excited about having an opportunity to test the stage kit before the huge storm we are getting right now and my hopes were ripped from me by a faulty part. My review of this stage kit will have to wait I guess.

What if this piece is not trimmed?
The sensor will be installed at an angle and the o-ring will be trying to seal on an angle. There is a chance for a leak.

Just had my kit installed at the dealer yesterday & all i can say WOW!
I have the auto
& i am seeing 20 to 21lbs boost. I think the kit is well worth the money & still able to keep the factory warranty.
If there was just a way to change the shift points on the auto's
