Reading through...wow.

Look at it this way...you spend 300 bucks or so for a mod that helps you out at about 3whp. WOW! You are getting up there in the horsepower...so exciting? Then you spend extra money to get a huge exhaust and takes that 3whp(which cost you a lot of money). Whats the point? To have your car sound sweet??? I saw a honda civic with dual exhaust tips that HAD to have been custom because they were bigger that a softball. I didn't think, "wow, what a sweet car." I thought, "Wow, what an idiot who has no idea what he is doing." I get the same feeling when I see a huge spoiler on a car. It probably throws the downforce way off haha. I'm not calling anyone here an idiot btw haha. If you bought the 3" exhaust then oh well...not much you can do.

20Dodge, depending on your mods you miiiight have 150HP but you aren't even close to 150WHP. WHP is what spikey is talking about. Right out of 03neons mouth, "HP is irrelevant."

I just don't see why you would buy all of these performance mods and then say that loosing a few whp from a big exhaust isn't a big deal.

hey blackflame...sit and spin buddy. is it ur car? nope. was it ur 300 bucks? nope again.....good job lookin like a dick.

losing a few HP isnt a big deal...simply because ill gain them back in the long run....so apparently you didnt read as well as you thought. in future situations, id probably shut my trap if i were you.

no matter what, its still a neon there buddy....but hell, the way u talk outta ur @ss about power mods i wanna see ur car...and the mod list...because i mean, it has to be sweet and pushin 400hp to the wheels....douche.

Hahahahahaha snap brother. I wasn't even talking straight to you. I was just talking in general. I wasn't trying to show anyone up at all. When I posted that I only read the first page. I just now saw that there was a few more pages. So maybe thats why. When I said, "I just don't see why you would buy all of these performance mods and then say that loosing a few whp from a big exhaust isn't a big deal." I wasn't talking to you. I was just saying I don't see why people in general would cause I personally wouldn't. Just a thought from me.

"is it ur car? nope. was it ur 300 bucks?" You are right, thats why im not sitting in a corner crying right now. wha wha? lol.

"so apparently you didnt read as well as you thought." Like I said just now I missed a whole page :\.

Maybe it came out kinda like a dick...idk. I wasn't talking to you btw. Just talking in general.

"but hell, the way u talk outta ur @ss about power mods i wanna see ur car...and the mod list...because i mean, it has to be sweet and pushin 400hp to the wheels....douche." Why does my car have to be that fast? If you said that a 10 foot building needed the same amount of materials as a 100 foot building and I said...no...would you say that I would have to have 100 foot building? No, its just a straight up fact.

"no matter what, its still a neon there buddy." Neon is a just a name...with any amount of money you can do almost anything to a car. Just look at nascar...Jeff Gordon races a Chevy Impala.

"losing a few HP isnt a big deal...simply because ill gain them back in the long run." I guess I missed the part where you are getting the turbo(not sarcasm). Like I said, I didn't even know there were 3 pages when I posted.

See...most of the time with forum there is common misunderstandings. If its with me please just ask questions like--Why did you say that? What do you mean by that? Did you mean to say this? You know, not straight up bashing right off the start.

Blackflame:

I really dont see why your post is relevant at this point in the conversation...you clearly just threw a post up to be derrogative, and it's not appreciated. The 3" exhaust is losing power on the lower end, sure, but as i indicated before, it wont be losing power at the upper end, which is where the neon does great anyways....in my experience with the neon, its not superfast, nor is it super slow, its a cute quick car, with some cunning looks when modded correctly. I love the look of a clean 4" dual exhaust, i might even go to some 3" tips, not sure, but i love dual exhaust,. and i love loud sounds, just plain and simple....i dont think the exhaust is a completely let down either, everyone thinks its all loss...your gaining upper end hp with it, and increasing the look and sound DRAMATICALLY....just cause you have big exhasut, doesnt mean you dont know what your doing..its preferance...but i agree, any honda is an idiot...hhaha j/k....but unless i read ya wrong, didnt sense a genuine post from you...and if u want to join in the convo, just let us have ur input, but it doesnt need to be critical...

Yeah, I totally agree 20dodge. I said before, I only read the first page when I posted the first time. So What I posted was with what everyone else was saying. The only thing I really added was the civic story. Everything else was pretty much said. I was just adding to it haha. I didn't see the multiple pages when I posted so I thought I was with everyone else. When I came back to see that someone posted after me I noticed mine was on the 3rd page so I missed a lot. Also, I could have said its just my opinion on what I think about the whole thing. I didn't attack anyone or say anything that hadn't already been said. I just came in at the wrong time and was all confused lol. 20Dodge, you are right. My post wasn't relevant to this point in the convo. But where I thought it was going to be posted it was relevant. Sorry guys. I will check harder next time.

SlowSXT, I'm sorry to hear about your car too. Atleast your new exhaust wasn't on it to get rear ended.

First off- Sorry for long post [8D]

Second- Its sounds like blackflame apologized, so I don't understand WHY you had to post that 20DodgeNeon00...[>:]...
