Eibach pro kit is a good choice and recommended by Eibach for the HHR.

I'm in Tucker, GA about an hour away. I'm going to keep my eye on you since you have what I want (auto SS) and have the same goals.

Tuners, not springs. :)

Just these few mods & a set of slicks will get your 'buggy' into the 12s at the track
Don't bother with the gms1. Go hpt and a 3 bar sensor, you'll save money and be making more power with a good tuner.
X2 on the ttr mount, also look into the trans mount
You might as well just get the 3" ZZP catless downpipe.
Get an intercooler, an intake and some charge pipes
If you want to go real fast, look into the new bnr3076
Some yyz's and a hardcore or xxx sway bar would do you good
Get decent tires

I've got 135,000 miles on a set of Eibach lowering springs on our Sunfire GT! No problems at all, so wouldn't say they are junk! No sag, no bounce, no bottoming out!

Did you have an issue on one of your cars with Eibach products??

No need for the catless DP, just a waste of money.
Stock intercooler, & charge pipes are fine, unless you go to a bigger turbo.
K&N intake system is the best you can get, worth every penny.
No need for a bigger turbo, unless you want to get into the 11s at the track.

My last time out at the track with very few mods 12.28 @ 112.67 MPH

Two big to do's on my list. Find a nice SS for a decent price then locate a tuner that uses HP.
