well as the topic saysbecause i am going to be driving a base vibe which is a great car btw but i test drove a mtrix xrs, quite the difference 50 hp makes its way more 'zippy' and funso im going to be in the market for a SC if its worth the gain
No definite prices, but last i heard, about $3000 installed.Reach out for silverawd26 or nsimkins, they both talked to Jeff Strausser at the meet, they may have a more definitive idea...
YES!I still visit GenVibe periodically. I have not forgotten about my "original" family over here!

The last I heard from the GM reps that came by the deealership, they thought the S/C would be in the range of 1500 to 2000 plus installation. Of course, that's not by any means a gaurantee. I woulds love it to be that price though.Shadow Realm
Abyss Monotone GT, 6 speed, Moon & Tunes, Power Group,and 16" Alloys. Soon you can see my Vibe GT at Shadowrealm's car pics but for now it is under construction!
very convincing faultline heheh if i have the money i am going to get one, cause it does make up for the price difference 3k sounds pretty believable... in a way i wish our cars had the honda civic si engine that comes 160 hp NA stock and then turbo that..... boo yah fun driving heh
