And now I know for sure you are nothing but a little ricer child.
I haven't once been stuck in gridlock in my Viper. It is my for fun car, not my daily driver. And pay 3 times what others pay for parts? Do some research kid, for the quality I'm getting, the price isn't even close to what it should be. And who says I'm going around 202 mph in a 65 zone endangering people? This is another thing a little ricer boy is going to come up with to try to defend having a more practical car. And fill up every 2 days? Again son, I fill up once every 2 weeks - the car is a toy, I don't drive it to the store to get groceries, or any where really that I'm going to stop. I have a Mustang I use for that kind of stuff.
And to be on a Dodge forum and put down the Viper, that is just plain retarded. I see you hitting your mid 40s and getting a used and abused piece of **** corvette in your future.
i guess we should all run around stock unless we have a bunch of engine mods cause it would just be so cool to have 1000 hp in gridlock on the 101 or a car that can reach 202 mph in a max 65 zone. i mean why wouldent i want to drive super fast and endanger everyone else around me? id be an ******* if i dident. thats it im buying a viper , cause after all it just makes sense to fill up every 2 days to show everyone i have more money than i know what to do with. and of course id really like to spend 3 times what others pay for parts because hey my image is at stake here a 10 second car" coolest street racer ever........................

being on dodge forum ripping on a viper? No , viper is a great looking and performing machine no doubt about it , beautiful car. Now being on dodge forum bragging about a ford , now thats burnt! So i should do my research on parts? i do work in the industry , i know how much things cost , i also know you pay 30 -40 % over the top on cost , that sucks man. what exactly defines a ricer? the term alone seems pretty childish. i know of rice burner but does that not refer to the asian import scene? and now corvette is a piece of a ****? again another beautiful machine that is a RACE CAR as is viper , they are in the same class aside from the extra 2 cylinders. Why the **** not drive it to the store then? you drive your mustang to the store , your boasted 500 plus hp and nitrous equipped pile to grab some milk and eggs. I never said you drive around fast endangering people but if your not gonna use it why have it? to stare at it? sleep better at night knowing its in the garage? so people will be green with envy? seriously though theres no reason to continue all this since its gonna end up with you getting sour and frustrated and calling me a internet tough guy, calling me out and trying to bury me with your ego trip on how you have the best and i have ****. i already got you , its all good. an before u ask no i dont want to meet you and see how cool your turd mustang is.

lol child I didn't once brag about my Mustang on here. " I don't drive it to the store to get groceries, or any where really that I'm going to stop. I have a Mustang I use for that kind of stuff."
How is that bragging? The word Mustang could of been swapped out with pretty much any daily driver type car and apparently you'd see it as bragging? Apparently you have some issues that you need to work out.
And you work in the industry? What do you do, oil and tire changes? The Viper community is a very small community, and we have vendors and such that post on our main forums. I don't know anyone that has to pay retail or top dollar on any Viper product. Our vendors take extremely good care of us. At times they'll sacrifice their free time to offer us services with out even charging us.
You keep bringing up jealousy. Maybe that is the issue you are having here. I just posted what I believed would be a better route for the OP to take to save time / money in the long run. Apparently I hit a soft spot on you and you feel the need to defend your car that you apparently riced.
When I was younger I had a Neon SXT, I was speaking from actual experiance, not just putting down an SE for no reason. I know how much money can be wasted for such little gains. Made the mistake getting a GT and not a Cobra as well. Lucky I didn't make the same mistake and went for the Viper instead of the Vette.

When I bought my Mustang I had the option of the GT or Cobra and I went with the lower base. After putting around 15k or so into her, all I have to show for it is 350 rwhp all motor and around 550rwhp when I spray. If I would of went with a Cobra and put the same amount in, I'd be looking at 700 rwhp every time I hit the gas.
so thats not you bragging about your mustang? 15 k for 550 at the wheels everytime you hit the" top end " is more like it right? I mean ya i always see people reving high enough to make full potential power. really dont care. And ya i guess i have no rep , always gonna be a oil change joke right? Actually more like ASE certified technician but it really doesent matter i dont go on ego trips. and really there is no jealousy , your ignorance is bliss , thinking it will cost this guy 10k to swap a motor in his base model with a few more minor mods and have a unique car instead of a dime a dozen srt4. i guess you made the mistake of poor mods and overpaying , not that bright. seriously though please explain to me how i "riced" my neon please. should i go toss some nitrous in it and a super awesome CAI and a bitchin flowmaster ? and maybe a super duper cool MSD coil pack and radical low resistance msd wires with quadtripple platinum plugs and chrome breather cap and summit racing oil cap and 60 mm throttle body? then will i be cool cause i gained 1/2 sec on the dragstrip? i mean hell ill have that nifty piece of paper that says i went faster so i can say i payed 10k for a receipt. and no its not jealousy , im not jealous , are you insomniac cause you know people dont care ? does it keep you up at night?

You are a joke to me. Showing this to the guys from other forums and at work, everyone is just laughing at you. Keep going kid. Talk about how special your Neon SE is, talk about how unique it is. Because I don't see a ****ing base model Neon every time I go on a short drive.

Bragging? If anything I was putting the car down a bit because I could of hit better numbers with a better base. The whole reason behind my original post.
I mean ya i always see people reving high enough to make full potential power.
So when people ask you what power do you make, what do you say? The power you make at 2000 RPM? No you ****ing tool, you tell them how much power you hit on a dyno. Plus you don't know my power curve, so you really don't know when my power hits. It is s V8, not a high revving 4 banger. This makes me believe you don't know **** about cars and probably still in high school.
really dont care. And ya i guess i have no rep , always gonna be a oil change joke right? Actually more like ASE certified technician but it really doesent matter i dont go on ego trips. and really there is no jealousy , your ignorance is bliss , thinking it will cost this guy 10k to swap a motor in his base model with a few more minor mods and have a unique car instead of a dime a dozen srt4.
You aren't very literate are you? Point some references out that makes you believe that I think a Neon engine swap and turbo costs $10k. I was giving him prices of base cars. And a unique car? Come on, it is still a Neon. Anyone trying to make them unique looking is asking to be called a Ricer. Any Neon is going to be a dime a dozen. If that is your car in your sig, if you were parked at any type of meet up - no one would be able to tell you did **** to your car to make it unique. It looks like any of the other Neons I see on the road at any given time.
i guess you made the mistake of poor mods and overpaying , not that bright.
Point this out? Do you just say **** and then believe it to be true? On my Mustang every mod I did was for a reason, and a supporting mod for some thing else. You obviously don't know **** about anything other than Neon cosmetics, rofl. The numbers I hit on my GT are numbers people dream of hitting in a GT. I just wish I would of went with a Cobra because I know I could of built a much more powerful car for practically the same price.
seriously though please explain to me how i "riced" my neon please. should i go toss some nitrous in it and a super awesome CAI and a bitchin flowmaster ? and maybe a super duper cool MSD coil pack and radical low resistance msd wires with quadtripple platinum plugs and chrome breather cap and summit racing oil cap and 60 mm throttle body? then will i be cool cause i gained 1/2 sec on the dragstrip?
No, concentrate on graduating high school first. And those are mostly ricer mods. See what happend here? You went straight to the ricer mod list. It is just where you feel comfortable.
i mean hell ill have that nifty piece of paper that says i went faster so i can say i payed 10k for a receipt. and no its not jealousy , im not jealous , are you insomniac cause you know people dont care ? does it keep you up at night?

I would rather have a sleeper neon than a srt4 cause most know about srts but if you smoke someone in a turboed sleeper like a sxt or se than thats really fun and fun to build a turbo in a se or sxt or r/t neon. . Oh yeah you can find a lip kit at your local dealership and they can try to find some sideskirts for you somewhere.
