Turbo upgrade installed

Got the factory turbo upgrade installed yesterday. Thanks Tom/Dan at Crate Engine/Rockenbach Chevy. It really makes a difference on my '09 Automatic. While I might be able to squeeze a few more HP out of it I like the fact that I still have my factory warranty and I can scare my wife!

Great news.Fun and fast for sure. My 09 has it also.......just pray your dealer wired it correctly and you dont go through the dreaded "Loss of Boost" issues that has plagued us on here. Good luck and have fun.

Great mod in my book for the SS. Driving almost 2 months "Upgraded" and I still get suprised by the power this thing has; even better since you have the automatic like me. Unfortunately, it is not enough for me. A downpipe and some induction mods are in my future

I am saving my downpipe (when I buy it) if I ever need to service it.

If your only scaring your wife, I recommend scaring yourself. It's a rush for me at 62 years old, having owed new at the time some of the most outrageous cars made. Bought my HHR SS to tow behind our motorhome. It's now my daily driver when I feel like taking a decade or two off, and my wife is not with me.
