I think there is some confusion here about what a "Stage" kit is. Stage kits are usually associated with forced induction applications. They are used to increase how much boost your compressor is capable of delivering to your engine.
The 2.2L L61 isn't a forced induction engine. There is nothing to stage. What exactly have you heard or what do think would be part of a stage kit for this engine?
GMPP is (supposedly, if they would get off their collective asses) releasing a supercharger kit for the L61 in the Cobalt. When they do, that will probably be all they ever do. They most likely will not offer stage kits for that accessory like for the LSJ engine in the SS models.
After market companies like Hahn Race Craft (yeah, I know, friggin' Halfcent and his buddy Hahn again...) will make turbo charging kits with different levels of performance and offer them as "Stages".

I checked the number when I got the book and got nothing, I checked it 2 weeks ago and it showed as available.

I see where it says that....pg 26...that really sucks donky *****
