Here is the latest update on these stage kits.
The 19212670 is the part number for the manual transmission stage kit. Nobody will say whats in it, but horsepower goes to 315hp @ 4800 rpm.
No part number for the auto transmission stage kit yet. Horsepower will go to 290hp @ 5200 rpm.
And as stated by jookster somewhere around 2 months before they are released.
This information comes from GMSPO (GM Parts).
Stil nothing as of yet?

So is it confirmed they will make a stage kit for the Auto Trans? I know many have commented on the Auto Trans not being as strong as the manual so I am wondering what kind of stress bumping from 235/250HP to 290HP would put on the HHR. I hope it comes available because I would love to have the added power.
