I swapped the injectors for my stage one myself. I was already running a smaller pulley and tensioner so I didn't need the stage two. Anyway, I swapped the injectors and drove it over to Huffines Chevrolet here in Lewisville for the reflash. They just charged me for one hour labor, for hooking up a damn computer. Overpriced for their effort but still cheaper than if they fully installed it.

If you need some mechanical help putting it all tgether, "I know a guy" . Nah, but seriously, he has a well modded SS and he's ASE certified working for Firestone. I always try to drum up some side work for him. Then you can take it in for a reflash. He's a good guy that won't gouge you. Let me know and I'll put you in contact with him.

I thought I'd save some time by asking around, because someone may know which dealership has the experience and reasonable prices. Help me out guys, I don't want to bust out the heavy ass phone book lol.

I second that. That's why I went to Huffines.

If it was Vaughn over on the short bus then yeah, he's your guy. You should call the dealership and ask if they still warranty it if you put the parts in and they flash it. More than likely not, but it's worth a try.

Just for the hell of it, I went to a Saturn dealership to ask if they have ever done a stage 2 install. You were absolutely right; they didn't know what the hell a stage 2 was!

However, I did find a GM dealership that has experience with the stage upgrades, and hopefully it'll get done this monday.

Which Saturn did you go to? I've called or been to them all for one reason or another, all except Irving. Also which chevy dealer are you going to? Just curious.
