We should all
I wasn't trying to put down anyone who did so and it probably does out perform the stock muffler. I was just trying to prove a point. Sorry if I offended anyone. I just suck today. Here is a photo that Booksmitty posted that I use to cheer myself up.

Can't we all just hit a _ong, I mean get along! A wise man once said " 'tis better to hold one's breath and look foolish, than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt."

Being a business owner myself (among other things) of couse I wold promote my products or services first and foremost. It is up to the consumer to decide if they want to do business with me or that can research and find alternatives. Bashing one person instead of offering constructive critisizm or offering alternatives to the consumers is just not a good thing to do as a business man. I think Mike is doing his best with what he has and I applaud him for taking the inititive and starting a business he is passionate about. If what I read was true, he may have made an error in judgement by not offering up theinformation his consumers wanted, but on the otherhand as consumers we are not garunteed total disclosure by any business. We have the right to research and question and if our questions are not answered satisfoactorly there are other avenues to follow. In this forum it is fine to ask and provide research, i just dont think it is good to bash others. I have had this problem on my F-body site before. It seems that a lot of people feel less inhibitions with a DSL connection to hide them from real life. It is all part of what i see as some of the issues with e-commerce, but that is another subject for another time. for now, lets all be happy that a fellow HHR owner has made a name for himself and that we are all offered products and alternatives form him and other that are coming out finally

GUYS, GUYS, Hold on...

I have found the best way to bring a thread to a screaching
halt is for me to post in it.

So, lets just stop here.

The results are in, draw your own conclusion, buy whatever
product you want, but just stop the Bi&%$ing!

Personally, I think Mike did his part.
Decide with your wallet not your mouth.

BTW, if you look at Mikes page, he states that the stock and
the Airradie had more cooler airflow than the CGS. The fan, duh!

And the CGS still had better numbers. Go figure!

Just my 2 cents worth.

Also, I HAVE NOT NOR WILL I MAKE THIS MOD, EITHER WAY.

Reason, the HHR is our only vechicle and if I make engine mods,
I WILL abuse it, and that can not be. I sold my '77 Sirrocco after
three tickets forced me into an insurance pool. It had to go...
