any more information to what the stage1 kit does. ive got a some tuning buddies good with hp tuners and they have been getting the hhr ss's at around 300 to the wheels with a solid tune. wondering if this kit would effect them tuning it at all. as for warantee we drive allot so car will be out of warantee in 6 months.

 

The stage kit will allow for more hp from tunes since it eliminates the "learn down" feature.

 

1000 miles now.

So far, my SS has been a pleasure to drive.

 

Mine too
I brought it home 7 days & 5 hours ago.
I put on 1770 miles since then Good thing it's been raining or I would have driven around too much
I saved my petrol receipts and did the mileage tonight - 29.4 actual MPG :twothumbs

I passed 4 moose, about 20 deer, 3 porcupine, a bobcat, a fishercat or very large weasel, a racing frog and 1000s of bikers (Laconia)

I got a $75 ticket for 66 in a 40 and gave a ride to 3 cage dancers from The Broken Spoke at Weirs Beach (Laconia again) redXdance:redXdance
I also found that it's as smooth at 110 MPH as it is at 65 (I mean the car, I dunno about the dancers)

I can't wait to get the stage 1 & the running boards

 

26mph over the limit and it only cost you $75. lucky guy, just got a $125 ticket for only doing 10 over.

 

It would have been $200 had any of the circumstances been different.
He had to write something because it logs everything over a certain MPH over the limit.
He was a cool young cop that would have been pushing his SS if it was him.
It was in a house free zone between woods and a pond that was relatively safe.
He liked the SS and was apologetic about giving me a ticket at all.
Good thing I didn't get clocked @ 110 on I93 or I'd be trying to get my license back.

 

On an SS?

 

If I got running boards on my SS up here in Wisconsin, I would have to get truck plates, as in winter I would be mistaken for a snow-plow.

 

I think they look way better and they are definitely more solid.
Would you rather have the rocker flares on yours or keep your useful, solid running boards?

 

Who's got the pictures of a SS with some on? Come on...someone must have done it by now.
