Looking for help with intake and turbo
I new to the site but i have an all stock 2006 HHR LS with the 2.2L. I was looking to up the performance a little bit. Can you give me some recommendations on intakes or turbos that have worked great on your cars??

Are you planning on doing these modifications yourself? A turbo/supercharger install on the 2.2L is fairly common but it is not an easy task. There are loads of threads on here, I would also recommend researching over at the cobaltss forum. The kids over there seem way more into hot rodding these platforms.
Not sure on your budget, a typical forced induction setup can run from $1500 (scrounging for parts, and DIYing it) to upwards of $6000 (catalog parts kit + shop install) I have around 4k invested in my turbo setup and I did all the work myself.
As far as intakes are concerned, I'm not the best help here. I have the 2.0L so our setups are different. What you'll really want to do is get a hold of CJKraus, he is one of our supporting vendors and from what I hear he can do some amazing things with the tune to really wake up your buggy.
How many miles you got? Manual or auto?
