Do I have Stage 1 or do i not?
Hey guys had my ss/sc for about a month now and went and got it dynoed today. I order it with cat back exhaust and the stage 1 kit. When i ordered the car they told me that the car would put out around 235 horsepower. When i got it dynoed today it only put out 204. I am very concered about this as i payed for the stage 1 kit and am not getting the preformance gains that i should be. I know i got the cat back but can't tell if i have the stage 1. Any advice on how i can tell if i have stage 1.
Any advice on what i should do
Thanks alot

Well stock the ss/sc at the wheels is from anywhere 180-200 hp it really depends on the dyno but to your question yeah you should be at 240-245 crank hp with exhaust but the stock injectors are green and the stage 1 are all black i think

ummm killer bee.. stock ss/scs have been all from about 190-220 WHP ..
stage 1 should push you at 230 or so WHP... if you can find someone with HP tuner you can see if they actually did the stage 1 flash... if they didn't then you wouldn't really experience much gains.. also what gear did you do the dyno pull in? what was the temp there? humidity? alot of things can effect your dyno...

hey guys thanks for all the advice.....the dyno i ran my car on was at TAG RaceCraft and it was a DynoJet. I think the 204 horsepower is to the wheels and isn't crank horsepower. i can i check my redine... just run the car?

push your foot to the floor. if it revs to 7k, you have stage 1... 6,500 rpm is stock.

I don think they are going to dyno him in 5th gear. If it were in third, it would be wayy higher then that. If not theres something wrong.
To OP: get your car warmed up, get into 2nd gear and put your foot to the floor. If you hit your rev limiter at 6500rpms then your still stock. Just make sure you obay the speed limit =P
