Oh, I failed to mention, that once I put the bigger scoop on, I'm designing up a 90 degree elbow, with a rubber lip that mates up with the hood scoop cutout,[60's cold air package], and plumbs into the stock[modded airbox] with a baffle and drain[for rainy days]. Yes, I have drawings made up.
I'm sure I'll get plenty of cool air into the airbox with this setup.
and just for you rocket scientist, when you plum in cool air into the airbox, hence turbo, it WILL give you more H.P.[if it does'nt throw a code].
I'll find out soon enough. I don't think anyone is going to step up to the plate on a CAI for a stock SS. "Moon"

Sweet , can,t wait to see the setup. Don't give up if you throw codes, It took a few trys for me to not throw an overboost code everyday. The rides lookin sweet man.

What are you getting now?
Ive already ordered a Cowl Type scoop from Unlimted Products (PN: SC-110-3) and I plan on doing a similar setup to what you two have going on.

18 is the max that the stock tuned ecm will allow before throwing it into limp for overboost.

Hey I have a cold air intake question. I have a 2010 HHR SS and am looking at this kit http://www.knfilters.com/search/prod...x?Prod=63-3069

K&N does not list it for the 2010 model. I sent them an email and they say they have not fit it for this model so cannot guarantee that it will fit/work. Does anyone have any experience with this kit in a 2010? Also, I was wondering if you have to use the K&N lid or if you can stick with the stock one. The stock one looks cooler.

On a side note, have you noticed any type of loss of rigidity by cutting that hole in the rad support?
