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?

I guess there is a reason for everything. I will see what the y hand out and how much it cost.

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.

I am waiting for the factory upgrade for the auto trans as well. Hope they get it out before winter comes.

I can't say 100% if it is confirmed, but since my dealer checked on it and he knows I have an auto - i'm assuming that it will be on its way.

As for timing, with the General who knows?

Now that SEMA is upon us, does anyone have any update on the HHR SS stage 1 kit? I would love to get this purchased/installed before Christmas.
