Default turbo kit moving along smoothly

well getting all the parts for my tubo kit is comming along pretty good...
i got my SRT-4 boost gauge yesterday and my SRT-4 intercooler today.....later tonite im going to order the hot/cold side intercooler pipes and the SRT-4 downpipe.....so there isnt much more to go until i can get the kit on the car....

this is a good and fairly cheap turbo kit for any one wanting to turbo a DOHC neon....

so far i have/ have to order

stock srt-4 turbo/manifold
srt o2 housing
mopar BOV conversion plate
stock srt-4 intercooler
stock srt-4 boost gauge
stock srt-4 hot/cold side pipes
stock srt-4 downpipe

total spent thus far: $390.00

i still have to order my boost controller, fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator, map clamp, clutch, intercooler piping kit

i would like to do the whole srt4 swap but with 2 car payments and plans on trying to get a house by spring, its kinda hard to come up with the money....and i cant save at all...since there is always sumthing that i want.......so the srt4 parts will have to do for now, then when the time comes i can just get a 2.4 and put the srt internals in it....

but my stock motor is just gonna be used to run low boost for a while anyways

Which special? Almost any turbo will fit, you just need to have an adapter made to fit. The SRT-4 turbo bolts right up to the DOHC engine.

The SRT-4 turbo and manifold are one piece and bolt up to the DOHC. The adapter is if you want to bolt it up to a SOHC like me
