Default tuneup time

115k miles time for a tuneup. Also need new suspension. From what I've read on here I'm not going to go for any performance plugs or wires, any other things i should know? things to check? things to replace? So far im going to get plugs, wires, and struts. anything else?

might as well, probably last longer. I'm also going to change the belts. I'm getting the MPx UDP, for around 100 off of mopar, it also comes with "high quality" belts

Performance plugs do nothing for the neon and the MSD coil pack is a STOCK red coil pack.

For a tune-up you wanna do the plugs, wires and PCV valve at the least. Get the KYB GR-2 struts, they are a nice strut. Also since you are over the 100,000 mile mark you wanna get the timing belt, water pump, and tensioner pulley changed now.

They are cheaper than a stock one from the dealer or an auto parts store possibly, thats the only advantage of them. But they offer no better performance than stock, other than the bright red color.
