Do what YOU want to do with it. Getting it into a mag is a definite possibility, it all depends on what you do to it, more in the looks department. 400whp gives you very good bragging rights for a Neon, but it may or may not get you a drastic amount of attention over 400+ whp SRT4's...

Anyone who really knows the amount of work you put into it will definitely have respect for it, hands-down. I guess it all comes down to you, how much sweat and money you put into it. At the end of the day, you cannot gaurentee mag pics or anything else no matter what. If they come, great... but you need to be happy with it no matter what anyone else thinks of it. At the end of the day, it's parked in your garage, not anyone elses... so do what makes you happy, and only you.

N3ON do all your post have to have some sort of sexual reference? Going "***** first" like you said sounds really painfull if you fall (or in this case) quit. LOL Man how long did you have that Geo?

not all of his post.... but i will say this post is all i needed and a good night sleep and i am ready to go "***** DEEP" in the neon again.. i got a new part time job, along with my full time job to help pay for it... if i can make about 600-700 dollars a month more than what i make now maybe just maybe the block will get sent out in a few months! i guess the real reason i wanted to get crazy amount of power out of my car is because i want the mags to see it, but i also want to take out a few vettes, and built cameros along the way.....after playing cards online last night and just hanging out around my house i thought about the neon and what it truely means to ME... a **** load of late nights, and a **** load of money have went into that car.. and it would be dumb for me to stop now... i am almost there...two grand is not really that much after i thought about how much is in the car now, as it sits....

oh yeah, pritty much i save however much money i have at the end of the week.... usually like 20-50 dollars a week.... if that.... i am around 350 now, after having to fix my dd a few times.....
