pt cruiser turbo question???

Ok Phil, heres the 411, all of my cars are N/A and don't have turbos, but if your PT is the base, you will probably have to get a turbo kit specifically for this car. If you're buying it piece by piece, get a turbo mount, a turbo, an intercooler is optional but it will up performance and make the turbo last longer, MOST IMPORTANTLY, GET A BLOW OFF VALVE TO KEEP YOU FROM RUINING THE TURBO AND THE ENGINE!!!!!!!!! The blow off valve releases pressure built up by the turbo when shifting gears, you know that whistling noise that comes from a tuned car when it shifts gears, thats the b.o. valve at work (no pun intended). If you don't have one of these on your turbo, it will blow up and you will become very poor because you'll be paying for a new engine and turbo or a new car all together. Thats all I got. Cheers, mate :) and good luck with the mod.

Short foot note take down your vin# and call chrysler to see the engine type as they appear the same at a glance,the turbo engine has lower compression to prevent piston damage or lean detonation. And ecm is programmed differently you'll need oil cooling lines,intercooler,all plumbing to get air to intake,the factory air relief valve So fuel economy and mil light isn't on forever making inspection,smog,deq, a real pain in the butt.

sell it and go buy a gt turbo cruiser off c-list.... then message me, and i'll tell you how to make it a 450hp sleeper
