Change the springs. Lots of options there...

Cobalts
Peddlers

Hey that voulumpous woman living in the back was sounding good till I realized I,d have to feed her probably worse than two teenagers found some other threads that say the new goldlines are best my concern was are the stock SS springs already lower and I,ll end up too low and ride like one of these bouncy little civic I see bouncing around?

on the subject about what springs to get...... go with the Pedders. they provide excellent handling & i love the drop.

as for the dual exhaust..... you can do a muffler delete and have an exhaust shop weld in a Y pipe right after the axle and run piping over to the side. then you'll just need a body shop to cutout the other side of the bumper to match. i was thinking about doing the same thing but i think i'll pass on it.

There's definitely room back there to run duals.

It's been done already. There's a pic floating around here somewhere of a dual exhaust. The guy put Vette tips on, looked sweet!

Here's a couple of pics of a hhr with duals and SS emblems i saw a few months ago on my way to North Carolina. I was trying to get his attention to give him a but he wouldn't look over at me. Has anyone ever seen this hhr or know if they are a member here?
