Pontiac brings a specially outfitted Solstice GXP coupe to SEMA. It is equipped with GM Performance Parts’ Stage 2 performance kit and performance air intake kit, which boost horsepower to about 290 (216 kW).

All of us in the Solstice/Sky/Cobalt SS/HHR SS community have been waiting for a year for the Stage 2 kit. It is supposed to be a reflash of the ECM, and two sensors for a little under $1,000 that gives you 290hp and you get to keep your factory warranty. Rumors are that the automatics get 290hp, and 5 speed manuals get 315hp with this upgrade. We have even had the part numbers and found the California CARB info for this, but have been waiting for GM to just release it. Hopefully, this is finally it!
