First off wasn't being a dick but now I'll gladly be one
1) not I powder coat but one of largest in USA , I was expressing how a powder coat does not make something superior to a injection molded piece
2) heat soak is an issue for these cars period. Intercooler helps a lot but still concern. So thoughts to heat shield are large concern
Dejon and cai both junk period
3) congrats on the intake tube, know piece you replaced I did same it flattens like pancake. No shock in your gain. No magic smoke there
Plain and simple I trust zip to be honest. I know they are legit. So unless it highly outperforms the factory design then it shouldn't cost more than kn unit
FYI I use zzp products but I'm not fanboy I always go for what is proven
If they want $300+ I want see value equal it
Otherwise illnstick to lnf tube mod and filter for gains

I've went through this pissing match here before, but their upgraded intake tube alone off the turbo over the factory plastic piece picked up 12whp on my HHR. Not going through this again here, with my current Dejon my filter is on top of the coolant cap where their tube will place it further out.
Congratulations you can powdercoat! Many on here do not have that luxury, beyond that I was comparing to a molded plastic piece utilizing an existing OEM part, not questioning your ability nor how something caters to you.
You can be a douche all you want, but I don't base my posts off of bias opinions nor do I build my cars off of bull****, I promise that.

yes, it comes right off the turbo with our upgraded LNF intake tube (modified for HHR or course) then drops the filter in behind the headlight :) replacing 100% of the factory air intake system.
we will also have a heat shield available seperately at some point.

this is an actual LEGIT intake for the HHR SS. i can't believe how some can really hate on this design when it's the best aftermarket intake available and it JUST hit the market. it completely replaces the stock intake setup and doesn't sit on top of the engine. yes a heat shield would be nice but that's nothing some cut up soda cans & duct tape can't fix.
$280 is a GREAT price for this.
ZZP ftw as usual.
