A few Questions
Alright here's what's up, I've got a 1998 SOHC Neon and I'm planning to do a few upgrades to it this summer, but I have a few Questions first...
1) Koni Adjustables. Are they worth the extra cash? And if they are, how hard are they to adjust from firm to soft.
2) Rear Strut Bar. I don't race or anything so is it really neccesary to install one? Do they improve the cars handling in daily driven situations?
3) Flowmaster Cat-Back. I'm thinkin of getting the Flowmaster Cat-Back. Will this hurt my low-end power at all? Will it give me any extra power?
4) Custom Air Inlet. I am thinking of making my own Fresh Air Inlet (the black plastic piece above the engine). I figure that the stock one has resonators to keep it quiet and is fairly restrictive. If I could make a design that was a lot less restrictive than stock would I improve low-end torque, or could I make it worse?
5) Rear Suspension Lateral Links. The links in the First gen Neons look pretty flimsy compared to the Second Gen's. DOes anyone know if the Second Gen links will fit a First Gen, or are the stock ones good enough?
6) Final Question. The air conditioning is shot my car so I was thinking of getting rid of it. Is it really hard to get rid of? This should also help with power too right?
TIA
