RE: What is the best neon?
so it now has 350hp i know you can only have a little with stock internals im just correcting you
i personaly think that the best way to go is to turbo the 2.0 and build the bottom but.....there is no replacement for displacement so the 2.4 should be better in the long run.

the advantage of a dohc is like 12hp and dohc motors are crap thats why they quit making them in 99 the 95 sohc has a more agressive cam but alot of parts are 95 only, i dont care what anyone on here says, sohc is twice as reliable as a dohc and you can make the same power with mods. your not going to have a seat of the pants feel between a sohc and a dohc car theres just not that much of a difference

The DOHC makes better power in the top end when the SOHC falls off. You don't feel the difference in "the seat of your pants" but at the dragstip (WHAT THE ORIGINAL POSTER IS DOING WITH THE CAR) you will SEE the diiference in 1/4 mile times.
