Ok don't be a idiot. 95 pcm's are different than 97-99pcms and 96 pcms are slightly different from 97-99 cuz they have the fkd up fan relay for your radiator fans.

No where in that post should it say Mopar Performance PCM for 1995-1999 Neons!

The only reason I picked up the coil was to replace the one that I have due to a bulge right behind one of the spark plug wire leads. Its like the plastic swelled from the heat inside. The coil is cheaper than the stock replacement from AutoZone so I went for it.
JackMeOffer, if you are calling me an idiot for posting a copy of the emailed final sales list from THEIR data banks, im afraid thats bull****. Im a grown man who supports his own family of FIVE off of a skilled trades income. I dont need to come here and have some bubblegummer call me an idiot. If you look under the description, you will see it says Engine 1996 SOHC. That is the destinction for the proper pcm from their list. Watch yourself. Treat others with respect if you want to be respected back.

That was a waste of money for you. No need for a colder plug. Cheap stock copper Champions would have been fine.

Otherwise, not a bad start. But what are you gonna do for air intake now?

Why would they list them as the best plugs for the Neon if the regular ones work the same? They seem to do their own product testing and give their opinions based on such. Oh well. Its not like $30 ammounts to much of anything today. My intake manifold is stock as is the trottle body, but ive got an AEM air intake on it right now. There are plans to relocate the battery and put an actual cold air into it sometime in the near future. I would also like to mod the intake manifold with the big PVC tube and larger throttle body at some point. And a cam. Jesus, where does it end?

Okay here is my product testing. I used them with a turbo and without. Without the turbo it didnt want to start very easy cold and ran like crap until it warmed up. I will have 95 cam for sale. Coppers seemed to gain back some lost power after the turbo.

one step colder plugs are for forced induction vehicles only... they are needed only when there is a problem with high combution high pressure systems due to the cylinder pressure blowing out the "fire" of the spark plug...

The way they described them on the site was that they were for Neons that were driven harder than your everyday driver. You know, like the way we drive them.

"Colder range, is for the 99% of Neon drivers out there, who have increased the boost, or drive their cars hard. Price is for a set of four (4). "
That is right off of their page. I guess if they suck, then I spend $10 and get the copper plugs.
