i personally would like to go bananas on my neon once i get a career out of college with at least these:

- top and bottom end rebuild
- srt-4 turbo setup
- bored TB or billet TB (57mm)
- 3" exhaust with a resonator and SRT-4 rear section
- Konis or KYB all around
- Mopar High Rates
- bigger sways and tower braces
- new paint job (same black with the silver stripes!!)
- 16's wrapped in stickies (14's will become winter tires or i might throw slicks on em for track).

of course it will look the same. as a daily driver while the neon is in the garage, im thinking a 99 Buick Regal GS with the 3800 Series II Supercharged (L67). its a smooth freaking ride with that unsuspecting grandma-esque look. but i would love to roll up next to ricers, rev my engine and act like a complete moron with these words "hey, wanna race my grandma car?" of course they would laugh and race anyway, but i would be the one to hand out the butt-kicking.

either that or an srt-4 haha. id like to stay in the neon realm...there's so much controversy!

a 2.4 and a srt4 are not the same engine. close but not the same.

yea i cant wait to get out of school either. i got big plans for my car when i get done.

mhm sure they are das


i bet you want a red SRT4 ACR

a shop 15 mintues away (mod-a-car, they've been in magazines and stuff) has a test red ACR SRT4 that they test their projects on to see which ones give more gain
it's pretty sweet

if you're making 50k+ a year on your own a 15k car really isn't all that bad...
