Common sense tells you that if it is .25 larger than stock, it can't be direct fitmant.

Neon

This is a direct replacement for all 00-05 Neons with 2.25 inch piping.

Note: some 2000 year Neons came with 2.25 inch piping, and therefore this piece will need to have a reducer welded in, or be clamped down by a muffler shop.

That is from the direct replacement cat off of modern.

Again no mention of 2". All of this is off on the exhuast section of the modern site for the 2000+ neon.

RE: CATBACK

Well, I just called Modern Performance and they immediately told me the stock exhaust system for the 2000-up (2nd Gen Neons) size is 2".
He said the Borla cat-back exhaust system has an ADAPTOR to connect it.[&:]
If your curious just call them for yourself (713) 270-8520.

RE: CATBACK

Oops! I just called Howell Automotive and they also said the 2nd Gen (2000-up) Neons have a 2" exhaust not a 2 1/4". Gotta love me for doing my research[X(]. J/K. We all want to learn something new (I do).

I was never talking about the 1st gen. Neons exhaust nor did I say what size that was but, I was curious so I asked Howell what size those came with and they did say those from the factory came with a 2 1/4" size exhaust.

Casper, u were right about your car (the 1st Gen Neon) as far as the size of that exhaust if I can remember correctly.

FYI; Were not talking about the R/T's or SRT's just the reg. Neons.
