Default from 2g owner to 1g owner

Hey everyone..Im AnnMarie...I used to own a 2g show neon. I got rid of it for numerous reasons and got a 07 caliber for a daily driver. However I just picked up a 98 neon sport shell. Theres a pic below....all you 1g owners give me some ideas. Being it has no motor its time for some GO power in this thing. Its the 3rd neon in the line. My camera is down right now so this is the only pic I got.

Thats pretty much it...bore it .02 over if possible, make sure you use a smooth sounding exhaust, and not some raspy POS muffler!

You do realize, a bore will not provide noticeable power. A bore with a stroke will though. A bore will simply clean the cylinders up if its that badly worn out.

not any noticeable power, but it amounts to a slight increase in displacement!
