Hey. I'm Craig. 31, got girlfriend, 2 kids, dog, cat,95 Wrangler on 32's, a 94 Cherokee police package, 91 cherokee 4.6 stroker, on a 4.5 inch lift and 32's, and most recentlya 2004 neon se for $850 @ bank auction in town. I wanna slowly get this car going fast and handling good This car is bone stock, auto, but has dark tint everywhere and ventshades too. Got 14's with new goodyears, so I really want to do some basic mods to burn the tires off. (give me a reason to buy bigger wheels)
Thinking of removing the cat, going with a K&N cold air (do they make these for an SE?) and a header to start. The auto trans doesn't seem to have too much kick at the start but accelerates quickly after the revs pick up. Can I get a shift kit or torque converter? or is a 5 spd a better option? Think I'll do some research... any help would be appreciated

Whats up everyone? New to the site just thought id say hello. I have a 2001 neon se i bought it from my little bros gfs mom for 500 bucks. It needed a new head so i bought a new engine got a good deal on that to only paid 500 for it, it had 14k on it so i got a pretty sweet deal. My neon has a stage 2 clutch, projector style head lights, msd ignition coil, energy mounts, Granatelli spark plug wires, NGK Iridium Spark Plugs, carbonfiber wannabee strut tower bars, genki short shifter (with the shift *** off my 82 scirocco), and a dual exhaust that i love and sounds good to me lol. Next im getting the aem intake for it just havent had the money for it yet. I also have the full shop manual that the dealerships have the one that tells u everything so if anyone needs any help just ask.

Can anyone help me with what size rims i should put on it cause i really dont know what kind would ride good?

hello my name is geoff and im from michigan. i bought my 2004 neon r/tused from chrysler, my mom thought it would be a good investment with the discount from dodge since she worked there. had 26,000 miles when i got it, cost me 8 grand with taxes. since then i changed the oil over to full synthetic mobil 1 as soon as i got it. it recommended premium fuel so i put it in since day one. changed the air intake at 80,000 miles and helped it breathe alot. recently redid the whole suspension with the help of a friend. front strut bar, k and n filter,nexen tires, 8000k lights, and a mod that i hooked up to my intake, not so sure if it helps. about to go run it on the track and see what i can run before i re-do the engine all motor.

Hi I'm Ryan. I'm 17 and about to graduate High School I drive a Blue 2003 Neon SXT and so far I've just added an underdrive pulley, intake, a little exhaust work, front and rear strut bars. Nothing major. I'm hoping to add a long-tube header soon, as well as a carbon-fiber hood, and maybe eventually swap an SRT-4 engine into it. Other than that I'm just looking at basic mods to add a little bit of power.

hey everyone!

my name is eileen, and i just bought a 2000 Dodge Neon ES. i live in nyc, work in long island and all that fun junk.

for the last 7 years, i owned 2 grand ams that i modded out. it's really refreshing to see an aftermarket for a car i own!! lol.

i only have the car for 2 days, but already i debadged it, and today i'm thinking of taking off the pin striping.
