Oh, we call it the Stage2 kit on the Solstice forum. It's always been referenced as that, so it stuck. I'm guessing that anything for the HHR would be the same for the Solstice as they have the same engine?

I read something about modding a sensor to make it fit correctly?

The boss on the sensor that goes on the charge tube has to be cut/dremeled off.

Cut-off but not the boss:
Here's the pics I took while my install was being done.

Would one of your gentlemen be so kind as to refresh my memory on the post regarding the O ring lube deal. It looks like I'm going to have to pop my dealer's cherry on this kit install. I'm hoping the lube won't be needed when it's time to pay the bill.

You have to remove the green orings from the sensors and install the supplied blue orings, which need LUBE to get on the sensors.

Take this with you, it will help clearify the HHR SS wiring because the wire colors are different than the instructions. Pinout is the same just colors are different.
