Install Time for GM S/C
Sunday, June 21, 2009 3:18 PM
For those who have installed their GM Kits...Whats the install time? Also, what size pulley are you running?

I called GM also and the Reflash is $200...Is it safe to drive the car after install until I get the reflash?
I'm thinking as long as I don't get into boost which may be difficult...

ALSO...The only kit I can find is from Summit Racing...Has anyone located something less than $3,000?

Thanks

yes, from where you are to where you're getting the comp flashed.

search about the bypass plate and how to make it stay open.

Can the 00-02 Jbodies run with the 2bar plugged in? I was under the impression to drive somewhere for the reflash with the 1bar, and swap out before reflash...

I would count on a full weekend to do it. It's a pretty well designed kit though, if you have the tools you shouldn't run into any big problems.

Your First Install every, step aside atleast 8 hours between a weekend or so and keep the manual/instructions handy.
My first install took 8 hours between two days. Now, I can get a complete install done plus heat exchanger in about 2.5 hours. given everything is already supplied and no beer/Auto supply runs have to be made.
