well the hhr wouldnt stay on the dyno. they couldnt get the right counfiguration of the straps onto it due to the exhaust was in the way. It kept pulling to the left on the dyno so we called it quits. Cat back in the works by Magnaflow:

Nice ride Nate!! Looking sweet! What's the engine size in the HHR? I saw one today, thought is was kinda cool but was worried it had an ecotech engine in it.

Its the 2.0 LNF turbocharged engine from the Sky/Sol alos is a DPI witch meaning tuning it is gonna be a bitch.

What's up Gary!! Long time no see! I've been hanging around Haddad's lately and actually used their dyno during one of their dyno days.
