#51 of 56 Looking for a turbo by pt_nick Jul 15, 2008 (9:54 pm)
I am looking for a turbo for my '01 PT. Is there a way to make it a turbo without changing out the whole engine? I was reading about the two engines and it seems like the 2.4 turbo has more to it than just a bolt on turbo. Replies to this message: krony (Jul 25, 2008 3:53 am)

Replying to: pt_nick (Jul 15, 2008 9:54 pm) There are aftermarket turbos available: http://www.impactparts.com/PTcruiser/index.html?target=Turbo_Charger.html http://www.jimsperformance.com/pt.html   and superchargers as well: http://www.pt-tuning.com/performanceParts/superCharger_Whipple.html http://www.revelenterprises.com/pt_cruiser_supercharger.htm http://www.kennebell.net/superchargers/dodge/ptcruiser34/ptcruiser.htm   for the money though...you might want to research the cost of trading for a car with a turbo...or for about $500-600 you could put a nitrous kit on to add anywhere from 25-75hp.
#53 of 56 Rear Speakers by scott_a_ro Aug 14, 2008 (6:25 am)
Hello, I want to replace the back spekaers in my 2005 PT Cruiser Convertible. Do I have to take of the whole siding to get to the speakers or is there a way to get just the speaker grill off?   Thx

Replying to: mdcruiser1 (Dec 29, 2004 6:52 pm) I did the same on my 2007 and believe it or not drove from New York to Chattanooga Tenn. with 3 people in the car and the cruise set on 65 when traffic allowed I got 30 mpg 2xs and it hovered around 27 to 28 the rest of the time. Great little car no back aches when going on trips. I installed Bosch Platinum +4 the vehicle definately has more power. Also I had the A/C on for some of the time.

#55 of 56 Looking at buying 07 PT Cruiser by wundurwoman Aug 18, 2009 (5:50 pm)
Replying to: strippednut (Aug 15, 2009 1:55 pm) Hello! My husband's Taurus died and we need a car. We have a St. Bernard and need room for him to come along in the car. We don't have a lot of money and a PT Cruiser seems to be one of the only options. I have read a lot of good but a TON of bad about this car. I just don't know what to do! We are looking at an '07 with 27K miles for just under $10000. We can purchase an extended warranty for up to 75000 miles. Is this a decent car? How does it handle in ice and snow? We live near Kansas City but we're from California so handling in the snow is important for me. I really would appreciate as much advice as people are willing to give. Thank you!

Replying to: wundurwoman (Aug 18, 2009 5:50 pm) I bought an 07 convertible a few months ago. No problems and I really like the car. One thing regarding snow; the front end of the car is quite low to the ground, there isn't much clearance. If you get deep snow where you live, you may want to consider another car that has higher clearance. Good luck.
