i'm pretty sure the r/t pcm doesn't add hp to the DOHC and not as much to the SOHC
and the r/t pcm has the 130 governer when the mp doesnt have one

I have NOT dyno my car - but the MP seems to be better tuned to my driving needs (racing needs)- It seems to havebetter power thru the band better then the R/T PCM

Also I can not get my MP to pass Emissions test - so I swap back and forth between the R/T PCM and the MP PCM

Unless you are going to use a header with it (which you probably won't), don't waste your money. The AF/x is tuned for a header.

Thats good to know - I am trying to figure out how another Neon beat me a couple of weeks ago when both of our cars are factory stock - but I did notice the AF/x PCM - need to check for a header on the other Neon.
