Does it make a noticible difference in power for the auto SS?

I bought my gf a SS tonight and she was asking about getting the stage 1 kit this summer.

 

I don't have it (yet) but hear good things. 235HP to 290HP I would hope so

 

Yeah, that's equivalent to putting the supercharger on the base Vibe like I did, it was QUITE a noticeable difference!

 

HUGE difference. DO IT! It makes a good car great. Be ready for the traction control to kick in often :)

 

has gm resolved the install issues so all the dealers do not fk it up when they do it?

i guess we will go for it this summer.

Thanks for the info so far.

 

I'm still throwing out feelers to see if any nearby dealerships have done this one yet. Don't really want to be the test subject if i can avoid it.

Was hoping to have it done during my vacation time in a few months

 

Where in Indiana are you. I've had it done and then I got tired of the dealer not knowing what they were doing and I found a dealer in Indy that had done several. They fixed my install in an hour.

 

I would say if you are a power freak this is a MUST. First one I drove almost sent me into a panic attack when I hit 80mph in dallas traffic.

 

Thanks for the info, i am sure the gf will like it.

I hope to get that and the rear anti-sway bar in the spring for it.

It is a reallly nice looking car, I like it.

 

BTY the stock HHR SS Auto is rated at 250 HP. It is limited to 235 HP in 1st and 2nd gears only.
