Hey Charlie, congratulations on selling the house and the impending move. Wishing you a smooth transition with no drama to mar it. Keep us posted on how things go, and I'll have to see if you're near anywhere we might travel for a meet-up! Safe trip!

Dave, Port Charlotte is still in the area of Punta Gorda, so what's another couple of miles? LOL Anyway, once the business is up and running, if I need another vehicle, I think I'll contact them and see what they have. If they've got something I'd like at a good price, I'll go check it out. Thanks again for the information!

Looking at the specs of an 05 Cruiser GT.
Not bad at all. 2.4 turbo'd. 220/245.
We just weight a little less. Your 0-60 is 7 seconds, our is 6. Guess it would come down to the driver.
Seems to be that you guys only get 8 pounds of boost stock?

Yah, I'm not racing anyone until I get the time to do a little work on it. I need to go through the front end. I think it's got a few items that need replacing, like tie rod ends, end links, sway bar bushings and struts. Not sure about the ball joints. It's too damned hot here to fool with right now, but I'd like to do a tune up and research about how to get a little more boost out of it. Money is very tight now. Anyone want to donate? I'll try to get a few pics up in the next few days. It ain't pretty, but it's paid for and it's MINE!

For more power(when you get to that point), look for the Mopar "Stage" kits... They bolt right into your GT cruiser, and increase boost, etc... Those turbo Mopars are one of the few small cars around that I won't mess with...
