You still have'nt seen their charts - and are only taking their word for it.
How is it you will take the word of the manufacturer over an independent dyno testing facility who was paid to do the job?
Oh, I know - you own one and are biased!!!
I own both...and paid to have both tested.

im gonna get the airaid because I have a 2.2L
doesn't sound like there will even be a CGS developed for us because "we're not really interested in performance" 
Performance is not huge with me, but I've just recently gotten interested in making mods...meaning I didn't buy my HHR with this stuff in mind
Im also assuming all of the info posted thus far is for the 2.4...any way to get the dynos or comparisons for a 2.2? Otherwise Im really just guestimating what my horsepower and torque look like after the mods I've made/am making...also is the impact of mods being accounted for in the testing, i.e. mufflers and the like?

Thanks Mike
That makes it interesting. we'll see what happens...if the airaid sucks, there's always eBay! Again, if I get 5 extra horses (from 143 to 148) and some cool sounds...I'll be ear to ear
also, you may want to specify that on your website...I don't think obvious to a lot of people, that it works for the 2.2L as well. Just a thought....thanks again-
