I found this article at autospeed.com and thought you might be interested in reading it: 'Designing a Factory Turbo Engine' - The changes OE engineers make when bolting on a turbo. In this story we'll take a technical look at the 2.4-litre DaimlerChrysler engine that's been released for use in the US-market PT Cruiser. With a power output of 160kW (215hp) it's no ground-breaker in the top-end stakes, but its amazingly flat torque curve - which peaks at 332Nm at 3600 rpm - gives a better indicator of where OE turbocharging is headed. It's also an eye-opening example of how thoroughly manufacturers re-engineer their engines when adopting an existing design to turbocharging.
