Default RE: SRT4 engine Swap

ok im new here. just bought a 03 neon SE w/ the 2.0L 16valve SOHC and an automatic. i want to turn this into a srt-4 and maybe put the manual tranny in. any idea of what all i need and what will and wont fit(if possible ways to fix the things that dont match up). its a daily driver so i dont really need hi-performance stuff just somthin to hang with the annoying subaru imprez crew and the honda/acura crews around the area. no detail to small and resources or people who have done it are encouraged.

The srt 4 motor and tranny will change out easy. Will use the mounts.Just having to change the wiring harness for the body to the car.
Not sure but I believe you will need the Sentry Key Immobilizer Module (S.K.I.M.), key, turning barrel (key switch) and PCM with the same vin number. Will need the wiring harness for the srt 4 motor.Of coarse the intercooler and plumbing.

Yea, yea take the easy way out pay someone else to do it. You take much more pride in your project if you do it yourself.

reply u can use the stock tranny we did and it handled 28 psi boost 4 the 2 years we kept the car.u can use most factory motor mounts. the pass. side mout that is bolted 2 the car has 2 b moved forward a inch.the driver side trans mount,must drill out spot welds and move mount down and forward an inch and a half.we made a mount that connected the rear bobble strut mount and the front mont together with 1/4 inch plate and square bar.would not reccomend after market computer 2 run the car nothin but problems car never ran totally right even after 20 tuneings and dyno runs

Default about an srt motor swap in 1st gen neon

now, i have done the motor swap , the motor mounts are done, but i cant get it to run, i have the under the hood wiring for the srt and computer, and key, and key barrel, now under the dash i only have a harness out of a 01 sx 2.0. the car will wined over but will not actually run. the fuel pump kicks in and i have a fuel pressure gauge on the fuel rail and i think it reads 30-40psi, i have all the nessary harness plugged in : knock sensor, throttle body, map sensor, oil pressure, crank sensor, and camshaft sensor . does anyone have any ideas to help me alone with this.
