And, I'm not saying it's not true about the cooler. But I know it's not beyond GM to add "dummy" stuff to a vehicle to promote discussion and false reporting by photographers.

Well, kind of...probably...
The Opel is the third member of that platform and, as I understand it, built in the same location.
I think, if you look really well, you can make out the word Sky on the left.
Although, I picked the photo from a site on Solstice testing....if you run your cursor over the photo, it does say GXPexhaust.jpg

I guess I can mention....since it is related to the expected SS HHR drivetrain...
Magnaflow is pulling almost a 10 % gain with a change of exhaust system on the 260 HP engine. And, I believe, that is at the rear wheels.....nice gain.
