Hey guys, I'm new here. I already posted in the new section but thought I'd post here too since this is where I'll be hanging out. I just bought my first Neon, a 1998 R/T and I'm in love! I'm a diehard mopar guy and have always had big blocks and smallblocks, this Neon DOHC is great. It has new water pump, fuel pump, timing belt, MSD ignition, K&N air filter, center force clutch, flow master exhaust, and the pcm has been reprogrammed. I'm off to a good start.

Coil pack, the guy I bought the car from said the pcm had been reprogrammed for performance. I asked him because of the dated reprogramming sticker on it. Not sure other then what the sticker says.
