Default ? about doing turbo on my 04 2.0 neon.

i found this kit on ebay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...ksid=p3907.m32


what else would i need to run at least at a starter level turbo.
i got a big exhaust cold air intake and im getting a srt-4 intake manifold put in.

well any advice would help thanks.


also does the motor from a srt-4 work with a 2.0 automatic transmision. ?

um, in order of questions:

1.) A real working turbo and turbo parts, fuel pump/fuel pump modification, injectors, intercooler + piping, oil lines, coolant lines, B.O.V., wastegate, RRFPR, boost controller... the list goes on

If you plan on doing this, there are several ways.

There is a kit on moderperformance.com from HahnRacecraft. That has EVEERYTHING you would ever need to do the build.

Then there is the more ghetto SRT-4 turbo swap. This requires much more time and labor to fabricate parts.


2.) why would you swap a motor and keep a REALLY sh!tty transmission??

Don't do it... for the two main reasons. (my opinion)

1. It says JDM. lol
2. they are emphasizing the 3" filter to get sales. 2x lol

u can build ur own for less money than the hahn kit, but like he said above, it is very time consuming..... not just modifiying parts but doing resurch to get everything right.... just my opinion, but i have done it and there is alot of other people that have, soooooo just depends on what u want....

srt [:'(]
