Default hey guys...

hello i joined this forum a couple weeks ago...i just bought a 2003 neon sxt...there is a interesting and some what amusing story behind the car...ok so my grandfather is really good friends with the guy that goes to the auctions for this local car lot...so they bid and won on my car...they get it back to the dealership and find out the dumbass who had it last took out the power steering, a/c, airbox, radio, carpet in the trunk, spare tire, and the jack, windshield wiper washer nosels ( added 5hp lol ), seatbelts, passanger side airbag...but on the upside it came with LTH and i guess this is good but it has a 3inch catback exhaust...i personally dont like it but i will admit it sounds good...also came with msd ignition coil...i know this might be a worthless post especially without pics but just thought i would introduce myself...


Dan

yeah...your car wasn't made to drive lol. I wouldn't call him a "dumbass" either. Sounds like it was built to race hardcore. All of those things you mentioned that he took out are common modifications for a hardcore race car. Btw, it probably has more than an MSD and catback lol.

you might also want to tell us if you have the plastic intake manifold or if it has the magnum intake manifold on it. also, maybe it has some internal cylinder head work like racing cam , lifters, etc. let us know. maybe it is built for racing.
