Which is better.....??

[Croation]

Well, i am still w/o my Pt Cruiser becasue im still on the hard desicion. Pt Gt Cruiser, Dream Cruiser 2. But now i have recently spotted a Pt Cruiser with a "Whipple Supercharger System" and i was very impressed on its capabilities, but not being much of a car person, i do not know which one gives you the better performance, the Pt Gt, or the Pt with "Whipple Supercharger System"
Anyone know?

No comment on your performance question but maybe this will help make up your mind. The supercharger is an aftermarket item bolted on to the stock engine. Out the door and your engine terminates, your on your own. The GT comes with a heck of a good factory warranty, and should be fast enough to put a smile on your face <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

I would suggest reading the pros and cons of the various aftermarket systems and what engine modifications that need to be done to handle the extra horsepower at the various PT forums. Also the Whipple Supercharger requires some cutting of the frame engine cradle, which may weaken the structural integrity. After you add up the expense and possible problems, the GT or Dream Cruiser 2 with the factory turbo will seem like a bargain. The turbo engine is a completely different design and all the internal parts are heavy duty. As mentioned before, if anything goes wrong with the factory setup, a trip to the dealer to fix it under warranty is all that is required, plus you get the 7yr/70,000 mile limited powertrain warranty.

As far as performance, the numbers being posted appear to favor the factory turbo setup, at least with the reported 1/4 mile ET's over a supercharger. Again, your mileage may vary.
