Turbo'd HHR? Been done. I think someone even fit an LS7 in a HHR before.

And now from someone who cares.........YES!!

The only ones that have been done were for SEMA and none of them could be tuned properly.

If ya got one that works and the ECM can be tuned for it, there will be a bunch of people interested and I'll be at the top of that list.

What do ya got??

BTW, welcome to the forum!

That's not entirely true. The Solstice people have been putting Intercooled Turbos on 2.4's for about 6-8 months. Some running exceptionally strong and across country. That's why, in a previous post, I asked if the Solstice and the HHR have the same engine management programs in their ECU.

Not realistic...and you wouldn't be able to drive it on the street. It's a "show car" people.

No offense but we're talking about HHRs. Has any of the Solstice people done a turbo on a HHR? Can you give many example of turbo 2.4 HHR's.

I know that thing can be done, but until they are done to an HHR, it's just talk. Unless you can than what I said is entirely true.

There are turbo 2.4 Cobalts out there. Hahn makes a kit for them. And the HHR is essentially a pregnant Cobalt wagon with retro heritage. So I am guessing this would be a kit originally for the Coby's and have custom piping for the HHR. Just my
