Default '98 Plymouth Neon EX

I am wondering if anyone can tell me anything about my '98 Plymouth Neon EX. It's a bare-bones 2-door with the DOHC & MTX. Is the Plymouth EX the equivalent to the Dodge R/T?

The only difference is about 11 hp the dohc ex has 140 hps and dodge neon r/t has 151 the r/ts have better susp for handling, rims and aggressive paint scheme other then that nothing special.

all 1g dohc neons were rated at 150hp. granted, they seem to have been overrated, but they still were listed as 150hp, not 140 or 151.

"aggressive paint scheme" say what? lol. oh, you mean the vinyl racing stripes

Did the R/Ts have the adjustable struts like the ACRs or something between the stock struts & the ACR struts?

nah, the r/ts didnt have the adjustable Konis, unfortunately. i wish they did tho.
the struts in the r/t i believe are the same as what came in the sports/expressos as well.. id have to check the neons.org faq to make sure

well, heres the link for the neons.org faq.. pointing to the suspension area:

im having a hard time finding out what the canadian neon EX is equivalent to.. i *think* the highline, but not sure.
