i recently bought a 97 sohc neon the guy said it has a mopar performance computer.....im trying to find out how you can tell.....

 

well acelerate the car wide open and see if u get the 7500rpms (get the engine to and rev limitation) if ur not dont have the mopar pcm, sorry but iunno another way to mesure that

 

thanks i will try that

 

On my '98 the MOPAR performance PCM has a decal attached to it that lists it as CARB certified.

 

Mine has a Decal on it that says MOPAR Performance. It should be on the top of the computer. The Stock just had some numbers stamped into the case.

 

most mopar perf. pcms have the carb exempt sticker on the bottom

 

thanks for all the help guys.....im new to neons so i dont know what carb except means but i do know i tryed yesterday and couldnt get my car to hit a rev limit

 

my car wouldn't hit the rev limit until I put an extreme cam in it. if your rev limiter is 6200, then you got the stock computer...w/o power in your motor, you won't be able to hit the 7800 rpm mark Mopar computer gives you. the engine just can't mechanically turn that many rpm's

 

In the automatic DOHC it shifts at 6500 (in D), but I've never experienced a rev limit at 6500 when I put in 1 or 2. Does the DOHC neon motor make power to 7500 rpm? Or does it peak around 6500?

 

whats a good cam i can run with out having to do a bunch of stuff to run it
