Thanks Eddie. Really don't have the extra $2k for the upgrade to a Stage 2. I have been speaking with some local installers but none of them have installed one of your conversion kits so they really don't know how many hours to install. What has your guys experience been with installation time on the Stage 1

No problem! It usually takes in between 8-12 hours to install depending on the the techs experience with the C7 platforms.

I witnessed the entire installation process on my car. I would not recommend an outside installer to take on this project for the first time. WeaponX technicians can do this with their eyes closed. The difference between stage 1& 2 is just a pulley and fuel system. Their experience with the C7 platform is unmatched.

My install was a stage 2 with a ported blower and I am seeing 11-12 pounds of boost under full throttle.
