EXHAUST SYSTEMS

Through the years, car exhaust systems have played a significant role in helping sporty cars achieve "hot rod" status. These "after market modifications" are heralded by auto enthusiasts everywhere, who are seeking to achieve the highest performance levels possible with their cars. You can put the performance back into your Chevy HHR by carefully choosing only the most select performance exhaust parts for your vehicle.

Naturally, when you plan any upgrade to your HHR exhaust system you must take care not to disturb existing emissions control equipment, no matter how tempting that would be. Therefore an HHR "cat-back" exhaust system is your best choice as it would allow you to put large-diameter exhaust pipes and low-restriction performance mufflers into your HHR exhaust system without harming the catalytic converter.  

There are 3 types of systems—the header back, turbo-back, and cat-back.  Header back comprises those exhaust system components starting from the header outlet to the final exhaust tip. This type of exhaust system is used in cars that are not equipped with turbochargers. On the other hand, turbo-back exhaust systems are used in cars that are equipped with turbochargers. It runs from the turbo charger outlet to the final exhaust tip to open air. Lastly, cat-back exhaust systems start from the outlet of the catalytic converter back ( which gives the system its name ) and ends to the final exhaust tip to open air.  One of the better manufacturers of Chevy HHR Cat-Back Systems is Magnaflow Performance and another is CGS Motorsports.
