Ok, one more question... what's all the parts that I need? I know there's a list on one of the forum on here... but I mean can I just get a SRT tranny and the rest of the stuff from a regular manual neon? or would all the other parts be needed from the srt as well? like the passenger axle (regular or srt?) what about the pcm? (regular will do or an srt?) Thanks again guys

Im getting pricing myself for a Regular Mtx swap.
I really want an MTx, and everytime I get in my car... I look at my automatic shifter and ask "why do you exist?"

lol... yeah, i'm searching for pricing as well... and I think aSRT tranny would probably be more expensive than a regular manual... oh well... if anyone know of someone who's selling their srt tranny or axles let me know!

If you got the SRT-4 tranny wouldn't you noticed a huge loss in accel?? Wouldn't the gear ratios on that be for a car with a 100+hp. I mean...the regular neons tranny ratios would probably top out around 130 right? I know the fuel cut-off it 118 but thats what it looks like. Wouldn't his car perform better with a tranny made for about 132bhp than a tranny made for 230bhp?

so i already have a MTx would a srt-4 tranny be a direct replacement? meaning i wouldnt need the axles or anything, just tranny right? And is that a good performance upgrade?
