Turbo or turbo pt

[jrs2002 ronjon]

I have a question If I add an aftermarket turbo to my pt will it be as fast as the stock gt turbo that I test drove I think im in love with the gt my pts only 9 months old trade in or get turbo?

Spend some time in the FAQs page and go through the installs!
http://www.bstockum.com

All those questions are covered there.

The PT you were riding in, in the video had a completly stock engine, a stage I HRC turbo kit, an intercooler added, running 8-9 psi boost. Both cars were automatics, both were in low and the GT got to jump first.

The level of boost and performance of this car was dangerous for its health, (weak rods in the stock engines).

.... at 12 PSI + boost, ... we are hoping the transmission will hold in there!

This PT has just been updated with Wiseco pistons and turbo rods, ported head, GT intake and valve cover, ... & more!

Now is the time to get a kit! Hahn has them on sale.

I have put together some incentives that will sweeten the deal even more.

Thanks, ... Bob

Some of the reasons I chose Hahn, I have a lot of moula already in my pt. Custom paint,full Bruiser kit,custom hood,very rare Koing titanium verdict wheels.plus many other toys.I would have to take a great hit to trade or sell my car. I figure I would loose at least 7k large plus all the upgrades at least another 5k. The main reason I did upgrade was I found somebody I could trust in every aspect of upgrade.Bob has kept me very informed on everything. Many things I dont even ask about because I feel Bob knows best. Another reason will be knowing I will have a very different PT . My Wifes Brother is a car Wholesaler he can buy 2001 limited auto or stick with under 20k for about 11k at the major auctions . In my area upstate N.Y. the same cars are retailing for about 14,500.I felt that was to much of a hit to the wallet. I feel my car will be great Iam picking it up om the 29 of this month. One big plus for doing the Hahn are these forums, with motorheads like Bob, Ant,PowertripOc,flashbask and all the other friends I have met.I know if I have a problem they are there to help me work through it. I hope this helps

Bob installed a Hahn stage 1 on my 2001 PT about a year and a half ago. That was one of the best decisions I made.
The PT with the Hahn and intercooler, running 8 to 9 psi boost IS faster then the GT.
Bob recently did a complete engine upgrade for me and after he did the first test drive after the upgrade, he posted on one of the other forums " I know Al's going to love this dam*ed thing ".
After all the work done and all the money spent with Bob, I would not do one thing differently.
It's kinda unusual for me, to have a project done of this magnitude and after it's all over, can honestly say, EVERYTHING went well. NO surprises. NO regrets and I ended up with EXACTLY what I was told I'd get.

A couple weeks ago, I took a guy for a ride that was thinking about getting a Hahn turbo from Bob.

Nice, reasonably calm, 20 minute ride. Except for the last 15 seconds.
After burning rubber for about 6 feet and accelerating thru first and second, maybe third too, his statement was,
" Wow, my car won't do that. Guess I'll call Bob this afternoon".

I can not see ANY way that you would be disapointed with a Hahn turbo

As always, exceptionally detailed and useful info. The only thing I would add that might impact the decision is the Mopar promise of power upgrades coming soon for the turbo. Combined with engine strengthening of the GT, and the serious rebates and low-interest DC is offering, don't think you can go wrong with either choice you make.
