Default RE: WHATS THE first mod you made to your neon??!!

I just got my first Neon yesterday. My first mod was to take the previous owners little puppy dog made of beads that was hanging from the rear-view mirror

Can anybody give me an approximate cost of converting atx to mtx in a '98 SOHC? I don't have a garage and wouldn't be able to it myself.

^^^ Thanks for that! In my case labour costs would have to be added as well. So I'm guessing it would be pretty pricey. However, my car was free and only has 106,000km (66,000 miles). So even spending close to $2000 is still a bargain considering I would have paid $3500-$4000 if I had to buy the car from a stranger.

Well, when I had my neon I first bought a new Valve cover from Das2123 (mine was real crappy), then bought filled motor mounts (Das), Pacesetter Header (Das), Iceman intake, then port and polished head. After all parts arrived, it took only 2 days to complete.

Now that I traded for a turbo neon, my only objective right now is to feed this puppy some fuel. (waiting impatiently for parts[:@])
