Thanks for the comments folks.

It doesn't look bad I guess. I mean, it is a PT crusier to begin with. Outside is baller, but I don't like loud music and TV's and all that stuff then again it's not my car.
Oh and the FMU is not 5:1 again for reference.

Re: My Turbo Project - Let the flaming begin
Id say you shoulda bought the stock 2.4 liter (or whatever displacement it is) turbo to begin with and just upgraded ---- since the engine is built for it. Anyways its nice but a little boughetto (interior wise) for me.
