1st timer! Hello all.

Greetings all. First time poster here. Been lurking for a few days. Just bought my first HHR this past weekend. I love it. 2008, 2.4 LT. Already planning on modifications. Already ordered a billet front grille. Debadged it. Will paint the back bowtie black as it is already discoloring. Going to order a rear wind also off of ebay. Much thanks to this site already as I have been pouring over past posts. So I have gathered that I should use the GMPP CAI to prevent tripping the check engine light. I am OK with that, although a little pricey. What about cat back exhaust? GMPP exhaust is rather pricey too as ebay, etc has them for in the $400's. But will they trip the engine light? Sorry so many questions right off, just looking to do some upgrades, not waste money, but also try to save some in the process. Thanks again.
Hope my picture isn't too big.

If you upload the pics to the gallery they automatically resize to site guidelines or chose 640 X 480 when sizing on photobucket.

Welcome! I put a MagnaFlow cat back on my '07 LS Panel. Before you dissassemble anything, you disconnect the battery so the warning lights do not come on
