I think he means swap in the whole SRT-4 motor or get a Stage II Hahn Turbo kit.

Considering they will cost roughly the same, you'd have to ask yourself what are your HP goals and how much work do you want to out into it. The SRT-4 swap would be more difficult than adding a Hahn turbo kit, but you would also might want to rebuild the engine if it has alot of miles on it to handle the boost.

if all you want is a little more power then i would just go hahn.....the srt4 then would be nice if you wanted alot more power

however you will need to be careful if you get the hahn kit and ever need to replace sumthing.....hahn doesnt like to sell replacement parts for their kits and their customer service is kinda shisty....make sure to keep all receitps, otherwise you may not be able to get any help wit hthe turbo from them either
after some of the stuff that i have noticed or heard about hahn i dont think i would want a turbo kit from them

there was a similar thread to this last year.....and I'll say it like I said then......go the SRT-4 swap route....

Hahn kits are worth the cash, but are you willing to risk blowing the motor without doing a complete rebuild first? At the very least, your going to have to tear it down and check everything over if you want to do it RIGHT.

The SRT-4 swap will get you good power and gives you a newer, more powerful motor.


If this was a new motor or fairly unused motor in good working order, the Hahn kit would be a good route to go. I'm thinking chances are if its a first gen, that the engine has got some good miles on it...

the hahn turbo will give you about 250-275hp at the crank.....so you might be looking at about 200 at the wheels
