I can tell you some things to gain a little out of that engine but if you want to go all out, be prepared to open your wallet. I built a 325hp N/A 2.5 but at a cost of almost $10k. for the same power out of a 2300 ford would have run me $7-$8k

The bad part is most of all the good performance N/A parts are long gone. In all practicallity a turbo package or go with the 3.0 and put a 5speed behind it.

thanks for the reply what in doing is building a 4 cylinder race car and with the rules the way they are the biggest engine i can run is the 2.5L engine with no turbo chargers one single over head cam and onlt 2 valves per cylinder. plus im going to be putting this in a 96 neon.
Lets go with PM (private message) and I'll give you ALL the details. I've been building and racing 2.2/2.5 engines for over 14 years. For next year I'm running a dodge conquest that I installed a 2.2.
I need you to give me more details about your track rules, where you'll be running (track size and surface), budget, tires, and you're level of mechanical aptitude.
