You can contact Turbo XS direct, we are not 100% sure as we are not the manufacture, but they would know if you called them direct.

hangers are the same. the way the exhaust is routed is the same. the ONLY difference is that the tip sticks out farther from the muffler on a Cobalt SS than a HHR SS.

Turbo XS is making an exhaust for the Cobalts? oh Lord i hope it's not a fart can style.

i decided to stop being lazy and look for it.

it's an ok looking exhaust with a good price. sounds fine, like 90% of the exhaust for turbo Cobalts/HHRs sound.

Does anybody have experience with that system? Do Cobalt SS systems also work on the HHR? I read in one post where the systems are bent the same but the hangars are in different locations. Did I join the game too late to get in on the goodies?

You're lucky because they just moved away from close to where I live and I just heard of them a few weeks ago! Oh well.

Anyone know where the muffler pipes inlet/outlet need to be when replacing the muffler? I'm looking into getting a 2.5" or 3" custom Borla system for my HHR SS just not sure if I need center/center or offset/center.

I've already have a CIA catted DP installed just looking for nice sounding Borla system :) Was looking at getting the borla system for the Cobalt SS but think i found a company that will sell 304ss mandrel bend pipes with the 3-bolt flange from cat to back just need to get a muffler and figure out if I want 2.5" or 3" the guy at Borla suggested I go with 2.5" for better sound.

If you're going to go with 2.5" then you may just want to go with a muffler and keep the stock piping. The stock system is at least 2.5" from what I've read here.
