Not directly...but the wheel weight for a 20" rim is substantial, unless you pay big bucks for a forged aluminum rim...heavy rolling stock. I know my 17's aer about 20lb (17x8 aftermarkets), so I wonder what the wheel weight on the 18 and 20's you plan on mounting are.
That's all.

oh ok I see your point. I thought you meant because of the over all height.. which wasn't making since to me.. but in knowing what you mean now I can tell you that this is the "family car" I also have a Conquest. 2.6 Turbo Chrysler car and a 2165cc turbo aircooled VW motor in a dune buggy that runs 10.99 in the 1/4 so speed isn't my main goal I just want a nice clean car to drive, BUT for 400 bucks who could pass up 60 more hp![8)]

D-C could have made a physically different controller. Yes, software is always hackable and easy to bypass...but...if you make physical changes to the controller type (microcontroller) it would make it more difficult...there are many things they could do to make it financially unfeesable (sensor chips in the tranny or other computers in the car to not allow their part of the car that they control to work if the pcm was modified)...

Cheers,
LIP

well then you don't need to talk to D-C because i like the fact that I can use the same stuff the GT can HAHAHA it is all in how you look at it and it is kind of sounding like you feel you got ripped in some way or another.. sorry for your bad experince if so.

No, not at all....I would only buy the PT GT cause I wanted the manual...not a big fan of automatics (especially now since I just rememberd 3BarBoost said this is the same auto as in the minivans and our company has had nothing but problems with these)....

I would be jealous is they offered the lite with the same manual because to be honest the extras (leather, etc...) that come with the GT are not that good compared to cars like the accord or camry.

Cheers,
LIP

here is the answer to the injector question

the 2004 high output turbo and the lite turbo pt cruiser use the same injector as the stage I kit comes with.

That is really awesome, I am new to the fourm and have a 2005 PT convertible with the Turbo Lite. You would not happen to know for sure what Part # kit I need to get for the 2005? I have read some of the posts and now know I do not have to change my injectors. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks!
