HELLO!! I'm new! But not to LNF's
Hi all my name is Oscar, located in Damascus Maryland PICS ADDED
2008 Red HHR SS just picked her up Thursday with 68k on the odometer.
She appears to have been stock, maybe lowered before. Within one day I have already installed a catless downpipe from turbo xs, who are only 15 minutes from my shop(conveniently), I have also already sent log files and tuned her up with my good friend Nick from Back Yard Turbo(very knowledgable, very experienced lnf tuner). My previous lnf was a 2009 summit white cobalt ss, full bolt-ons, e85,stock turbo, made 370whp 454ft lbs, i was one of the few to get that much out of the stock turbo, trapped 118-119 in the 1/4.
My plans for this are to find some cobalt turbo wheels black them out, wrap them in 245's, figure out an intake setup, intercooler/charge pipes/meth. Im looking to get her around the 350 whp range and mid 12's with good tires. Already dialed in the trans tuning as well, Im very suprised how fast this is even though i know the lnf's are strong. Does anyone have an accurate weight on an HHR SS?
My gto that is now in pieces
My cobalt with a random dyno sheet from when it was on meth before e47 tune, totaled, sold, reborn(some guy down south)

Cool another motor head got an SS. And the fun continues....
Might as well shoot for the 11's....2005 has already posted 12.51, with only a K&N intake, gutted second cat, and His E-85 tune. I added those mods to mine and each added more power, quicker. I added the Forge bypass valve, with the blue spring, and it's running pretty good.
Welcome to the group, wish your shop was a little closer, I would drop by and say HEY..........
