LNF Stage II Kit
Found this on RLF's. Looking good so far. Probably just a reflash too.

That kit, with FWD + boltons will probably see 300whp. But I hate using ricer math. Then again if you listen to the video, they claim 310 ft/tq.

The staged kits should be interesting . Ive read a few engineering articles on the LNF , GM has said they are holding back at its 260/260 in stock form and could push it past 300 hp rather easily .
Guess well see .

Fastest lap on PGR, out of how many thousand people!?! His time was also 3.5 seconds faster than second place!

Kinda sux. Looks like we will probably have to wait until they announce it officially for the Sol/Sky in 4-6 months.
EDIT: This just in from Cameron and the GM Rep at SEMA- "The Stage 2 will include 2 new pressure sensors and a computer recalibration."
Sounds like it will be fairly cheap. How cool would it be to have 260whp and still get 30mpg!!

I can get ~30 mpg doing 70 mph on the highway in my Solstice with the top down. That's with the 3" exhaust. If for some stupid reason I actually drove 55 mph on the highway several of us have recorded mid to high 30 mpg (34~38) at that speed. My car already has a horrible coefficient of drag with the top up, top down it's like a giant parachute (all Roadsters are pretty much). Cobalt has a much lower coefficient and FWD so it should get better fuel economy than I can.

Must be a typo, cause I was talking to one of the guys in the GM booth at SEMA today, and he said there is only going to be one kit, something like new pressure sensor(s) and a computer recalibration. He did say it was going to be 290 hp, AND would be covered by warrenty. He said the stage kit should be released shortly after the LNF balt goes on sale.
