.. and just add a window switch to open the secondaries..
I wish it were that easy - stepper motors (I mis typed earlier when I said servo) require a certain duty cycle to hold the motor open and the one on the magnum has 3 positions - I'd have to make my own motor controller board - which wouldnt be that bad I'm pretty crafty with electronics - but I would need inputs from the sensors because when it moves and what position it holds are all dependent on load, temp, etc...and has already been "optimized" to my cam grind - if I had the money i would look into individual throttle bodies and setting up my own fuel injection system but as it stands the msd module is looking like my best bet at around $320....

Not sure if this sounds dumb or not but is the R/T magnum and ACR Neons pretty much the same but ones autmatic and ones manual or is there another difference between them because every neon R/T driver i know has automatics and most other neon drivers in my area have automatics, im so far the only sxt thats manual that modifies his car. Anyways please respond im really curious.

I know you couldnt get an acr auto - who in their twisted lil mind would ever want that?? But yeah the 2g R/T and the acr have the "same" magnum engine - the R/T has "sport" shocks - acr has double adjustable (w/ a single adjuster - how gay is that?) inverted dynamic suspension struts - R/T has big heavy 16" alloy wheels, acr has the tried and true dodge 15" alloy (lil heavy but tough as nails) - acr doesnt have any power **** ie windows, door locks, etc...all mechanical baby!! - springs and swaybars I think are the same? R/T has a cool air dam and spoiler wingy thing [&:] and above all...the R/T costs more!! oh and mine didnt have a radio when I bought it - I dunno Im sure I forgot something...the reason I bought an acr is cus its lighter, has better struts, and was cheaper...if I wanted to front some extra loot I would have splurged and bought an integra type R!!
