Re: Could I put a turbo in my 05 vert?
The PT seems rediculously easy to turbo, especially with available bolt on parts from donor cars (read SRT4) and if you do your own ECU you can really keep the costs down.
All that said, I wouldn't venture into it if you aren't that mechanically inclined or of you need to rely on your PT for anything. It takes time and knowledge as well as a couple bucks.
You could probably pull it off for around a grand if you source the right used parts. I may turbo my PT at some point after I toss one on my TJ.
Gas mileage improvements are nice, however they get really god with the right tune and ECU. On my Probe GT for example once I turbo'ed it I was getting 7 more MPG on the highway as well an extra 100+ whp.
