Whatever comes out first, turbo or SC, I am all over it. Both will create the power I want. The turbo would be a bit more fun though...
At least i have the exhaust system now to handle that!

No excuse other than lack of money to build that.
Reality and my grandiose ideas are two totally different things sometimes.

I think I am going to wait the 3 years til my warranty is up. Then I'm going to drop a SC V-6 in it, not 100% sure of that yet, but its on my mind. I know there will need to be some beefing up of the front end and the suspension. By then I'm sure the after market products for us will be plenty.

Finding a Turbo, and installing a functional Turbo are two different things. There`s a lot of thing/parts ,involved with a turbo, internally, externally, that even a co. like Garrett isn`t prepared to go out on the limb for, when the veh. is new like the HHR. Maybe in a couple years GM will get something that is RELIABLE for the HHR. Just sticking one on , won`t get you down the road any quicker, unless the tow truck pulling your veh. has one...

I have a Tubro Caravan, never driven a veh. with a Supercharger, but I think a Turbo is probably more fun. Like having another passing gear,ON DEMAND.

It's a rumor that it's coming out at all. There still is no official announcement from GM.
