It's not like the exciting moment when you finally got high speed Internet access after years of dialup. It's like the month after month of the company telling you it was going to be available, only to not make it available.

Here's your change...

You mean like how it was about a year after the initial release date of the GM stage kits for the LSJs before it finally got out there? It happens...you have people interested in the LNF...progress is progress.

Yes, and so since GM set the bar so high, we, as consumers should just STFU and get over it (instead of expressing our dissatisfaction and voting with our feet)? Good plan. That'll get them to step up.

It seems like wherever you go people are wanting more mods for the HHR, especially the SS... people are waiting to spend money! You would think someone would want to make money!

I'm doubting if major players in the aftermarket really want to invest time and money into a body that will change in about 2 years....especially with the relatively low volume of owners who wish to do "radical" changes to the body (other than stickers,etc.).

Aftermarket engine changes/parts would be nice since the Ecotec appear to be around for awhile. But then engine compartment size/changes enters the equation and re-engineering again needs to be done by them.

Look at it this way, by the time parts are finally ready, I won't have to worry about voiding my warranty! LOL

I'm just enjoying my car.

When the full "kits" are ready, i'll just have another reason to drive with a smile.

So essentially 10hp and 20tq

What happens to these numbers when the tune is added?
