Exclamation Well I Did It! Victory Red HHR SS Sitting In My Driveway!

Yep, sho-nuff!

The dealer has the GM Turbo Upgrade, or what is know as the Stage I Kit, on order and it will be installed in a week or so.

Pioneer Stereo, Performance Suspension et al!

Did pay for the extended warranty.

Hoping to get 3m paint protection in the near future....

AND a Snow Performance Stage 2 water/meth injection system....that upgrade netted 60HP on my blown 5.0 Ranger...

Can't wait to go to work today!

My Scion Xd is getting 38MPG...that will be hard to top...but it ain't got no balls!

The dealer did not have time to install the mandatory in Illinois front license bracket so I ordered this...

Excellent idea, haven't install the frt plate even though its mandatory in WA I'll wait until the powers to be stop me a couple time, then I'll order one, but then again I don't drive mine that much anyway

I have the electric version of this. Summit Racing stocks them. APR-400EU

They also have the one you have ordered too. APR-400U

I love it as it fits well and works great. Just watch the ground clearnce on the front at it can and will drag if you do not watch. The over hang of the nose make inclines to some driveways an issue.

Smile Aqua Blue HHR SS Here

JUST TURNED 700 MILES. fILLED THE TANK YESTERDAY AND CAME UP WITH A 29.8 MPG.

I've called Maggie three time's this week to order stuff not to mention two other after market vendorswith stuff to dress her up.

Being new to the SS & the turbo I have a question about the Stage 1 set up ?? Just what does it do ??????

Thank you
