I should also state that I was ONLY looking for dealerships who had already done the install.

 

Just got back and I'm a happy man. I never saw more than 13-14 psi before and now I see as much as 23 in 3rd-5th. Light throttle now spools the turbo, no more 1/2-3/4 throttle to get big boost. I stood beside the tech (who has done 5 now) and the guy (Sherman) really knows the inner working of the car and he's a turbo guy to boot. It took him 2.5 hours but he solder, loomed, and taped all the connections. Unfortunately my cumulative gas mileage went down 1 full MPG in the 60 miles back home

For those looking for install in north GA. I DEFINANTLY recommend Bill Holt in Ellijay. Worth the drive from metro. I also got to test out a Cobalt SS while I was waiting...LOL.

 

Cool if you don't mind me asking what did they charge you for labor?

 

It was $180 for 3 hours but like I said they wanted $98/hour in Atlanta He spent considerable time soldering, looming, and taping connections and literally worked for a good 2.5 hours. He also spent another hour or so after the job talking with me about how the Ecotec ECU actually works and the modification potential of the platform. It can definantly be done quicker than 2.5 hours, but he was extremely thorough with the install and I was pretty happy paying $180 after I saw how he did it.

 

Canton Chevrolet, which is now Bill Holt I think has a guy that works there that has an HHR SS with the stage kit.

Service manager tried selling me on getting one. 700 bucks installed he said.
