You can still use the SRT-4 turbo, you would just need a mattdog adapter. You can swap to a DOHC onto your SOHC block (same block).

i asked mattdog a month ago hedid not haveasohc adapter in right now he said he would do a production run some time[>:]

250hp would only last for a while(or a long time) because stock internals can't hold forever look at these idiots who run 100 shots of nos on civics and neons with stock internals i never lol at a civic loseing a race like that 1...2...3...bang

there is no reason to need 3" exhaust pipe on a neon...even with a big turbo.....
to get 250hp you will need to run about 10 pounds of boost.....the stock rods are only good for about 7 pound of boost.....and, if you have more then 100,000 miles on your motor then its only gonna be sooner that you will have a major problem....
when i put the srt4 turbo on my car it had 150,000 miles....the motor lasted almost exactly 10,000 miles on 8 pound of boost before i spun a bearing...

there is a parts list for the srt4 turbo in 1 of the stickies up top of the main page

You can't see the diameter of the piping unless you get under the car, so how does it look cool?
