2007 Saturn Ion Redline with Stage 2 Kit & Gauge/Ladder Tach

[sockerdood11]

Cool

[golfinguy55555]

Is it necessay to have lsd on the redline because it doesn't have traction control?

[snobrdrdan]

@golfinguy55555

Necessary? No.

But HIGHLY recommended to get the power to the ground instead of spinning one wheel.

What you want is a "Competition Package" equipped Redline. It'll have the LSD, the boost gauge/ladder tach, & the gunmetal wheels with the polished lip (those are the give aways).

[bratboy90]

@snobrdrdan I have a pretty heavily modded stage 2 265hp 05 Redline and a 06 Cobalt with LSD with intake and exhaust can keep up quiet well from a start due to my traction loss.

[Ghostixe]

@golfinguy55555 What you should really do is buy a car your not gonna get laughed at for driving. Ion redline isn't gonna do that for you. lol

[golfinguy55555]

@Ghostixe I got my redline. It's fucking sick. you think i'll get laughed at then your an idiot.

[Ghostixe]

@Ghostixe easy guy, I was joking. Its pretty much a Cobalt SS/SC with diferent clothes and shoes is all, and those are dope. Unique cars are good cars.

[golfinguy55555]

i want a redline but im worried about those centered guages!

[snobrdrdan]

@golfinguy55555

Sounds weird, but you actually DO get used it and it's not a big deal after a while.

I have a 2010 VW GTI now, but I still miss my Redline.....it was a nice/unique car

[FunkyStickman]

@golfinguy55555 Agreed, I've had mine for a few years and you do get used to the gauges being there. Really handy in autocross, you can see the tach/speedo no matter where the wheel is turned. It's definitely not a car you see every day.

[MangoSmoothie16]

im a noob lol but is stage 2 a kit from GM or from a tuner company?

[fkolby75]

what kind of gas are you using ???? IT MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE!! 91 dont meet the cut anymore ....

[snobrdrdan]

@fkolby75

I don't have the car anymore (have a '09 Stage 2+ VW GTI now), but I was using 93 octane from BP all the time in that Stage 2 Redline

[esllove]

is it possible to put one of these guages on a 2004 redline

[snobrdrdan]

Yes. You just need to buy the gauge/pod setup from Saturn or used, and then hardwire it.

If you check out redlineforums. com there is a DIY/tutorial on how to install it!

[esllove]

thanx

[imagineer0220]

hi, im geting a 2004 redline soon, and i was just wandering if you had found out a way to install this onto yours? thanks!

[YarkoBeatz]

hey i got it working it was a fuse but when i hit 2nd gear like the car dies it feels like is goin to die and it pops a lil engine stop light with a lil hand and then ill stop and wait like 2 mins and then the car turns on like nothing happened wats the best way to set the boost gauge and the knobs in the back? maybe is that lack of power of so i have an 06 ion redline catback system after market intake..

[snobrdrdan]

I don't know about the lack of power.

But to adjust the "ladder tach" lights on the boost gauge, it's in the owner's manual.

OR if you look on redlineforums . com there is a thread in the How To section called "Adjust your Ladder Tach Lights" that you can read or just google it.

[snobrdrdan]

Lower: 4400 rpm

Middle: 5600 rpm

Top: 6200 rpm.

The settings can be adjusted by turning the stem behind each light. To have the light pair come on at a higher rpm level turn the stem counterclockwise. To have the light pair come on at a lower rpm level, turn the stem clockwise. Each turn adjust the settings by 100 rpm.

To resort the default settings, press and hold any stem for three seconds. The lights will flash three times.

To turn the lights off or on, press and release any stem.

[YarkoBeatz]

dude i have the same thing but it does not turn on or what eva i have to fix it i might get me a new one where can i get em?

[snobrdrdan]

Did your car have the "Competition Package" from the factory???

Mine didn't & I added it afterwards using "amishland"s harness from the redline forums

[dn157523]
