Just put on a GMPP CAI Box on my 2.2L, easy install and it only requires the removal of 4 screws on the Cover to replace the filter

I second the GMPP intake. Its filter is easy to clean (with water or air, and is reusable), it breaths cool air (not underhood hot air), and is not an oiled filter so it will not foul your MAF sensor and throw codes. It is a factory part, good looking, sounds good, and I can tell a performance difference for sure. Stryker can also vouch for the gain when installed. It's worth the price in my opinion. God Bless, Marc

not in catalog

I just looked through the GMPP on-line catalog and don't see any mention of this air filter box. Where did you find it?

The part number for the intake setup is 19159214. It's called an "HHR Air Induction Kit". The air filter, if ever needed, is 19159207. I hope this helps. Best wishes and God Bless, Marc
