Some basic stuff really

Horse Power?
MPH?
Turbo?

Basically, I just wanna know how fast this car is, because one of my boys is always talking shit about it because he owns one. Yet, because he sucks at stick, he doesn't drive it. So instead of me going around looking at sites, I decided to just at here. My look at the car, after just hearing it, i think it has power, but I want to know to what extent. I didn't look under the hood or anything, but I know he hasn't done any work on it. So I just want to know what's good with this car.

Well, in 1989 you had the option for a 2.5L I4 with a non-intercooled turbo running 150HP and 210 ft/lbs of torque or you could get the 2.2L I4 with an intercooled turbo that produced 174HP and 200 ft/lbs of torque.

I have a 1989 LeBaron GTC that could run in the mid 14s stock and mid to low 6s from 0-60. I also found that the GTC ran more around 205HP and 225 ft/lbs of torque to the wheels, but 174/200 is the factory specs, but I have found that Chrysler lies a lot about such numbers, they seem to underrate a lot of cars.

The GTC is the same thing as a Daytona Turbo Z with the Turbo II. If it has the turbo II is is a damn fast car and is nothing to be laughed at.

Check out the Dodge Garage they have a lot of info about these engines and what not. Also you can check out my two GTC to learn about them as well.
