Wow that's a lot. Looks like I'm buying from the states and paying the minimal exchange.

Don't get pissed but I paid $23,500 new (minus additional GM $1000 credit) and $2,400 insurance.

My car was around the same price but my insurance (after the pkg policy) is only 1447.....why is yours so high? (Granted I am in Sask and we have lower insurance rates..but that is a BIG difference).

And you have to remember there is a price difference due to the dollar (which GM uses a set rate at....)

You couild drive to michigan for a weeeknd trip get the kit installed there.

oh and my ins is like 139 a month so like 1500 a year i guess they consider it a 4 door family car. knock on wood hopefully that dont change but the cobalt ss i would be out of luck with high ins

I think the stage 1 kit was about $800 or so. I'll probably get a pulley then see about either the stage 1 or the MAF-T from Intense. As usual, prices from the dealer are not going to be competitive at all...

On a side note, I'd have to get it from a Chevy dealer so I'm not 100% sure that Saturn would warranty any problems if they occurred.

im just going to get the rev it up ecu, instead of waiting...i might have to retune it for the injectors, or go back to my stock ones... i dunno, i really like the intense kit, but there seems to be some contraversy over the tuning
