HHR noob
 
1 Attachment(s)
I've always wanted a HHR but with family and priorities it never happened. Now things have changed. I bought one a month ago. I looked long and hard and found what I wanted. Here's what I got:

06 loaded 2LT
low mileage for age
clean and great condition

I'm an old hot rod guy so I've been busy personalizing. So far I've added the following:

Goldline springs
CGS axle back muffler
CGS cold air intake
Jet stage 1 performance module
2 din touch screen receiver with the works

I have other plans but I need to take it slow so the wife don't notice. This is a great forum with lots of good ideas. I only have one poor picture right now. It was taken in the parking lot at work in the dark.

BTW, I'm from central VA

Looking good so far! Nice start to your project and welcome to the site!

I have already been questioned about my choice of ECM tune. I'm still learning the ropes with the HHR and 2.4 performance choices. I will probably go with the inner program later because I have already spent the money and installed this one. We live and learn...:smile:

Welcome..that was me but I pulled that post because I recall the last time I opened up that can of worms on a website. I'm sure you'd rather just discuss your 'new' HHR rather than the merits of 'chips' vs actual tunes. :twothumbs:

I was wondering where the post went. I found out about the better tune after I had bought and installed the Jet. I have done the research and do agree that there is a better tune available. I just didn't dig deep enough at first. A change is in the plan for the future. I used to spend all my spare change on my harleys but that era has come and gone along with some prodding from the wife and a couple accidents and injuries to boot. So now I'm caged. Might as well enjoy it..:D
