I have read a lot about making the PT faster. The Hahn Turbo and/or the Whipple supercharger should make vast improvement. Maybe shave around 1.5-2 seconds on 0-60;1/4 mile. With proper tuning, along with engine parts to support the boost (rods pistons etc..) I have seen about a 14 flat quarter mile. Around 14 flat is a very respectable time to our 3200 pound four-bangers IMHO. Getting down to 10... I think that bolting the body on to a completely different chassis would do the trick. If not, maybe a hemi conversion, which is $$expensive$$. But, what do I know? My 2001 5spd is stock, and I dont want it that way for long.
