Dealer install time

The Horse Power and Torque aratings are the same for At & MT. That is just the way this calibration turned out. The reccommended time for installation is 1 hour. So at $90 an hour..... Just remember the 1 hour is only a guide line for the dealer and they can charge what they want.

Do it your self install?

The install is not that difficult. However, the vehicle with the new sensors and the old calibration is not compatible. So getting the HHR to the dealer after the install would be a problem.

Couple questions...

Teh stock ecu adjusts boost depending on certain conditions to keep the hp and torque at 260. Does this ecu do the same? Is there a set boost level?

Also since the ecu does that, will bolt ons increase hp without the ecu compinsating fo the extra air flow etc..?

Will there be other upgrade kits like stage 2? Intake ,turbo back exhaust?

Thank you!

You are correct on the production calibration. The Power Upgrade basically turns off the learn down feature and is tuned to protect the turbo from overspeed. Therefore, if you add something to make the engine breath better this kit will keep the horse power gains that part made. There is no specific set boost level.

Sorry, I can not give out any information on future products.
