Default RE: SRT Turbo Checklist

sumthing else that i found you have to do is get the stock srt oil return line.....take off the rubber part so that you have just the metal tube.....then you have to make a few bends in it so that it clears the axels and the exhaust.....i bent mine a little and connected a rubber hose to it and then ran it between the steering rack and the cross member.....then to the oil pan...i will get some pics of what i mean soon

The adapter is if you are trying to use an SRT-4 turbo on a SOHC neon.

that spot on the checklist i posted is if you have a sohc you have 3 options,
1. buy the $220 adapter
2. buy top end dohc pieces (lower compression, higher boost)
3. drop in a dohc motor

otherwise if you have a dohc ignore that box

if you want a fairly easy job, then just get the adapter....but if you want a little more power and are mechanically inclined, then i would drop in a dohc engine

You won't use the mattdog adapter, but you will have to get some type of custom adapter/flange made to get it to work.

an auto turbo isnt too bad....but a 5 speed would still be better....

the only adapter that i have heard of is for the dohc-sohc.....but none else........it would deffinately have to be custom

srt turbos are all over ebay......and check srtforums.com......you can usually find them for about $200.00-$250.00 shipped

The quickest and fastest neons are auto. Not a stock auto mind you though, but nonetheless...an ATX.
