I assume that is your HHR. What other mods do you have done to achieve those numbers?

In all fairness you left the hood up on the AiRaid while dynoing and the hose disconected. The AiRaid unit is meant to be sealed to the hood with the hose ducted to the fender while operating. So if it's not properly hooked up and functioning you're not going to get good numbers. You guys are always telling me dyno numbers are biased, now I believe.

Yes I do see C.H.'s his point. It may not have made any difference, but what's the point of putting the hose out the front if the hood is open? The plenum chamber is completely open so it's not sucking air the way it realy would as designed.

I guess we will have to wait for an explanation on what you mentioned Capt. I am going get something, but I will wait to hear more on this matter. Yet, it is good to have a couple of options at least.

Yes..
As I can see or not see.... no dyno charts.. just somebody's graphing..
Put the hood down... does anybody drive with the hood up ??
Send the dyno charts to Air Aid or let us....

Thanks for the dyno results Mike! Your time and energy are appreciated by all.
I believe Mike has a 2006 1LT with the 2.4L engine.
To clarify (based on my recollection)- here are a couple thing's he's done that may skew the dyno #'s a bit from stock:
- Synthetic Oil
- IMCO #924 Muffler (with larger tip)
- fuse box cover (
)As stated, he used the STOCK 16" wheels and has an ATX.
Being that his past has submerged him in the automotive world, I'm sure he's aware of/tried to minimize as many variables as possible.
For all you ATX owners... was this done in "D" or "I"?
With that- "Thanks Again!" and let the WAR begin!!! (I have a feeling this thread will get very long!)
Any way we can actually see each pull (graphically)? I'm curious which makes more torque/power in certain bands... not just an overall shootout.

He has a 1LT but it has the 2.4 option.
