Checkout the turbo stickies at the top of the forum threads list.

A Hahn turbo kit costs about $4500. Serious cash, but you get what you pay for: a 4cyl that is capable of putting out around 200 whp with rebuilding the engine.

so what "real" turbo are you running on that beast anyway? 26psi should run you some serious HP, even on a fake turbo like mine.

Start with the turbo sticky at the top, once you read over that basic information there are plenty of people on this forum that can help you out with more specific details. Currently, there is no viable supercharger kit on the market, but if you have the money or expertise you can custom make a kit. The easiest and most economical way to turbo your Neon is a custom built turbo kit using parts from an SRT-4 and various other sources.
