HHR SS: let's discuss

Automatic Friendly..
With a manual, the flow is broken at each shift point when you decelerate and accelerate, the blow-off valve lets some boost escape which has to be replenished before the turbo is loaded again, hence lag.
An intercooler really makes this even more prevalent because it`s like a balloon filled with air, and the air wants to go backward if given a chance, which means more lag. Only about a second or so, but people judge things in seconds...

Nothing about an auto. 5-speed w/short shifter.

OK, Guys................ The info I get "COULD" be changed by GM as they are constantly updating to reflect the actual product specifications. I went back to check and they still list an automatic trans for the SS. Also, G85 Limited Slip Differential is listed, so I don't know for sure if that only applies to the automatic trans or not. Anyone know about that?

Thanks for checking :) Would it be possible for you to do a screen grab of the official dealer list off of the GM dealer website and post the image? I would like to have a copy to take to the dealer with me if they need help finding the information. If you don't know how to do a screen grab, hit the "Print Screen" button on the top of your keyboard and paste it into your post. Thanks again for your help!!!

Can you give me an idea of where in the website the information can be found? I want to be able to point the Chevy sales people to the right area if they can't find the information when I go in this morning. Thanks!
