A turbocharged 2.4-liter 16-valve 4-cylinder DOHC engine producing 180 horsepower and 210 lb-ft of torque is available on PT Cruiser Limited.
PT Cruiser's standard 2.4-liter 16-valve 4-cylinder DOHC power plant offers a formidable150 horsepower at 5,100 rpm and 165 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm."
HOW DO YOU FIGURE? I personally don't care for the PT myself and am in love w/ my HHR's, but I just wanted to see how you figure the PT has less hp than the HHR. Especially since they have a turbo kit available and we don't yet.

a friend of mine just rented a PT with the N/A motor and an auto tranny. We raced from a stand still and a roll. The 2.2 HHR whooped on him EVERY time. NO question the HHR is faster than the N/A version. Now we're trying to get his dad to let him borrow his PT GT Turbo with a 5spd to see what my modded 2.2 does...

That was it? It felt faster then that.
It was fun with the Camaro though, felt like we were doing 90, I look down and see 135.
I nearly 
myself!The Camaro's accual high speed is 182, although, I've only gotten it to 150.
