Re: Turbocharging my PT
Pricing I saw (a few weeks back) was in the $3k range, not including installtion unless you DIY it. But it's not an easy install either. Also, when I was researching ways to upgrade my PT I called Kenne Bell and they don't support the optimizer II ECU programming for PT's anymore. Apparently there were too many problems with the computers crashing some time after getting the reflash. I also called Whipple and they don't make or support the PT supercharger anymore. So if you can find one new...you're gonna probably pay a TON for it.
Check Ebay motors, and realize that you may need a bunch of little parts to make the swap work.
Mean Green is right, there really are no shortcuts with PT's.
See here: Dyno time
Good luck!
