Put a turbo charger in it. I put one in my 2000 neon and it accelerates much faster now. I love it.

Hahn is what I would go with if I were you they are brand new and not used like a srt4 and you can use some srt4 parts with it if you wanted to .

ok the way to make your neon faster is put an srt-4 motor. It already comes with a turbo so u set to go. Our 2.0 engines werent designed for a turbo. So in order to put a trubo in u have to change alot of your stockinternals to able to run a higher boostwhich is very expensive.some people can say u can run under 7psi on stock internals but it ruins the life of your motor. And no your axles wont snap with a turbo from what ive heard. When u upgrade yoursuspension its springs, and struts or coilovers or sway bars, not your axle....

yeah thats what im going to do because i rather buy an SRT4 than do a swap. You can always turbo your neon.
