Jose's website rates them both at exactly the same hp. Though, I do think the GT will make more power than the PT due to the better flowing exhaust side. If you can go by the ratings, then you just have to choose for yourself if you want to save money and hack up the car.

750 rwhp will be no problem for either one with a 6 speed. Through an auto, it'll be close to the limit.
