1998 4door SOHC neon i need a good power upgrade for under $600

 

Auto or Man.?

 

auto, like the miles mine has 270,000

 

DAMN!

id say switch to mtx but there goes 600

take your throttle body to a shop and have it bored out to 57mm

you can get pacesetter hearders for 140
an underdrive pulley for 110
get a 3.0L chrysler caravan intake for a junk yard and build a cold air intake with an exhaust pipe and k&n cone for probably 70-80
maybe find a better cam somewhere
adjustable cam gear ?
mopar performance computer around 250
get a dohc muffler for like 10-20 from a junk yard (i got mine for 7)

just go to www.modernperformance.com

the udp, header, mopar computer and adjustable cam gear is on there


i wish i had 600 just for upgrades...

 

Thanks

 

What computer would you recomend

 

Mopar PCM! Since you have a 96, you will need one for your year car. 95neonriceeater gave you some good advice although I wouldn't worry about the adjustable cam gear just yet. Cheap upgrades are the DOHC muffler, 3.0L intake and ATX TB.

 

whats with 96 only having its own special PCM anyway? i know the 95's had the small one, then 96 up were the bigger pcm

 

It's the same PCM but the circuit for the fans are different. If someone with a 96 wanted to use a 97-99 PCM they will have to swap pins. I think it's pin#55 in the 96 and pin#18 in the 97-99.

 

hey das

he said his was an auto so he doesnt need the atx tb!! haha

thats why i told him to go to a machine shop to get it bored
