nice hows the one 13 sound, are you using your stock head unit, what amp are you using? I want more info on this setup.

I figured the GMPP exh would fit. The underside of the HHR's are the same as the cobalts... everything line up perfect or where there fitment issues?

Yes, please tell us about the exhaust and how it sounds. Also, you would definately benefit from the new SoCal black valve cover!

I found the K&N intake to be pretty quiet, which surprised me. The exhaust is pretty nice, not much drone at all, very mellow and sounds good when you get on it. Very deep kinda throaty idle sound, i like it very much...

Figured i woulda got more replies than 4 on some of the more contreversial parts out for the hhr, i guess didnt impress anyone....

Don't be sad ! Looks like a nice setup you have going so far. I like how the sub is simplelike, do you have it to where it can be disconnected easy for spare ? How is the K&N Intake holding up ? Gas Mileage ? We stock them now, and have yet to put one on mine .

Yes, the intake actually improved my mpg. My average before the intake on the DIC was 22.3, and afterwards i havent seen below 24.1, so a definite improvement even though i get on it occassionally. As for the sub, i was some what dissapointed with the 13's ability to stay on beat when played loud when beats were constantly changing, it had a hard time keeping up, so in turn i got 2 jl audio 10w1v2's in a ported box to remedy that problem, ill have pics of the new speakers in soon, but dont get me wrong the jl's sound quality was crisp and very clear. As for performance, i'd like to get a header, i was going to get the gmpp manifold but a buddy of mine who is a pro drag racer with lots of knowledge of making cars go fast, said 30cfm isnt really anything to woo about, espically if its gonna be 250+ for the manifold, didnt see the worthwhile improvement so i decided not to get it.
