NEON PERFORMANCE

Yeah im confused? what year neon is it? what model?

And if its a SRT-4 motor then its already turbo unless you want more power then get a AGP 50 trim kit and call it a day. Or E1 turbo from Darrell Cox or how bout you go visit SRTForums.com

This thread will crash and burn faster then the life span of a twinkie at Rosie's house BUT honestly there is no such thing as 50 dirt cheap horse power, especially in a neon, with the exception of N2O, for 300~ dollars or so you can get a zex kit or something similiar with a 55 jet, but honestly Neons (with the exception of the srt 2.4) aren't known for their reliability stock, let alone a 50hp increase. Honestly i bet the car is a great commuter, cheap on isnurance, and good on gas, leave it alone. If you want to mod something id get a seperate car with a more solid platform that will be cheaper and more reliable to mod. Because if you start modding your car, it will become a money pit.

Re: NEON PERFORMANCE
 
what model do you have? sohc or dohc?

Things i would suggest would be afx computer, long tube header, solid motor mounts, cams, upgraded springs

im not going to link to the neon vendors i dont know if im supposed to here but you can find them all at neons.org

basically do a lot of research at neons.org, the biggest reliability problem for pre 99 vehicles were the headgaskets that were supplied to not to manafacturer specifications.

To the OP: Not trying to be an ass but you dont come off as very knowledgable with cars. Wait and get something else that's a little more novice friendly, and acquire some know how as you daily drive the neon.

why dont you find a wrecked intrepid and then pull that v6 out of it and swap it in yours that is a little more money and a little more hp.

You can supercharge a neon. I know theres a guy on neons.org who has it done. Im not sure of any actual kits made for it, but Im pretty sure it can be done fairly cheap.

So which is it?? Are you getting into the military or out of it?
Also Marines are spelt as Marines, not Mariens ( that is a pizza place in Oklahoma city )

paint the car white and put a race style number 5 on the doors and a big red M on the hood, dont forget the helmet!

Rueben 03-31-2008 07:24 PM

Re: NEON PERFORMANCE
 
headers, exhaust with high flow cat, pulleys, intake, lightweight clutch, grounding kit, lsd

get those and get like 25 hp.. btw it aint cheap. the cheapest thing you can do to your car is make an intake, but it seems you already have that

TheLittleRedSRT 03-31-2008 09:09 PM

Re: NEON PERFORMANCE
 
dohc or sohc?

One simple thing you can do if youre dohc is find a newer 2.4 (01+) and pull the lash adjusters out of the head. Then go find a newer 2.7l intrepid,concorde etc and pull the rockers. probably no HP but it helps with oiling the cams and aeration.

if your SOHC find a new R/T neon, Snag the cam, intake manifold and exhaust manifold. Or...better yet, get the head.

Re: NEON PERFORMANCE
 
neons are easy to modify if you know what you are doing. performance wise there are lots of things to buy and change if thats what you want. i had a 95 sohc that ran 14.5@93 with a mopar pcm, intake, udp and some weight reduction. dollar for dollar they can outperform hondas if you know where to put the money at. these cars got a bad rep for headgasket supplier issues but can be good cars if so desired. most people consider them throw away vehicles. i had plenty of people laugh at my car that left them in the dust at the track who were driving hondas. do what you want, just remember modifying cars is like throwing money away, and if you do complete something, whatever it may be, some asshole will probably steal it from you in the end. then you get left with nothing.
