Just wondering if anyone has turbo charged a 02 r/t neon, and if so what are your opinons on doing it......

 

welcome to heaven my friend, this here is the place for ppl with the same passion u are discovering. please do not be scared and try that search button my son, u wont regret it.
o and btw turbo charging a neon r/t is as common, effective and pleasant as having sex in a dark rainy night.

 

ok anyway.... there are stickies on the top just for turbos. you have a few options. you can get a hahn kit, or do an srt setup. you cannot go over around 7 lbs though unless you have a built motor. its not as simple as just putting a turbo on however, there are many other things that need o be upgrades such as fuel and oiling system though. but it is possible and people have done it.

 

and dont forget the most important part guys, $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ lol

 

That pretty much covers it, read up in the turbo sticky for some basic information. I have a "complete" list of parts you'll need for the SRT-4 kit thats much more extensive then the one I currently have in the sticky, but its in Excell and when I copy and paste it gets all f'ed up. The only main problem with a turbo R/T is the spark timing...the R/T computer likes to really play around when it advances/retards timing, and when it notices other things going on it goes crazy. With that said, its not a major deal, and even if you left the computer controlling fuel and spark you could still make a nice turbo R/T...MS'n'S is the way to go however.

 

Thanks for all the info

 

why do you all make statements that aren't true... I ran 10psi all day and all night without a built motor. Do you guys not understand that PSI does not mean anything. It's torque that blows motors not PSI.

250-270 wheel torque with out a good tune and your pushing your luck with a stock block.

Becareful what you read on the internet my friend... take what you read with a grain of salt. If anything, its a good place to help you start your own research.

how long have you been running turbo set up at 10 psi
I just want a little more power was only looking for some more horsepower ,

whats you preference turbo or srt-4 swap , don,t care about cost.

 

fine be that way[8D]

 

I ran 15,000 very hard miles on that car... Engine ran as good as it did the day i bought it. Got rid of it a year ago when i moved to Hawaii from MA.

I suggest you swap a SRT-4 motor...

Unless you know your **** and can tune, the SRT swap is the way to go. You will have power and still be factory controlled.
