I found a used garrett t3 turbo on ebay for $170. Slash, where did you get that piping kit that you have, as well as the manifold? An srt-4 piping kit doesn't work does it?
The piping kit is 2 Neon Intake tubes placed back to back

The front piece is from a 1995 SOHC and the back is from my 1998 intake tube.

Where did you pick up that manifold? I've been looking around and can't find one for a first gen neon.

Thanks alot guys... considering i'm a poor college kid with a little bit of dad's money i'm probably going for the cheaper route. I want to do an srt-4 when i get the cash, but i think the cheaper turbo setup will work for me right now. I'm just looking for a faster car to drive from seattle to bozeman and hot rod around town a bit.
You may want to consider a few bolts ons over a turbo build. Just my thoughts on that. Poor and turbo do not mix.

a SOHC running 7-8psi of boost has the same power as a SRT-4. 215hp to 230hp.
When did you dyno your car?

I'm not dirt poor, but i think i can afford to put a turbo on (with a little help from dad) if i find some good deals and used parts.
