Actually posting pictures will prove something. If you don't already know, about 100% of the people on this board think you're nothing but BS. We don't want to hear all of your BS about what you dream of having etc. Just stay on the topic.[&:] It's pretty old now.

This forum is going to crap cause of flamers like you black and others . Just cause I dont fill like posting pics dosent mean I dont have something or did . You all can tell about your rides and not post pics so LEAVE ME THE CRAP ALONE! STAY ON Topic auto turbos are just as fast and nice as 5 speed turbos look at the charger srt8 and the grand national or gnx some are 800 to 1000 hp rides. Thats that. All turbo rides are nice and fast.

wow reading through this entire thread is quite painfull.

I am going to try and get this forum back on track by posting my personal opinions on a turbo neon (STOCK).

A turbo on a stock neon will bring you a lot closer to a fast car. Any turbo, like said above, will push a car to go faster. HOWEVERm you have to prepare for a turbo.

Most people just slap on a turbo and think it will go forever. WRONG. A turbo on a stock engine will, literally, bend pistons and destroy your engine if you dont watch your car. You have to, seriosuly, poor some money into the engine and transmission to handle a full blown turbo.

I will be more than happy to give some respectable modifications before a turbo.

Such things would be:

-Headers
-Full Exhaust system: (since you have the muffler and pipes, you can pick up a custom bent 2.25 in. exhuast from a shop that will do it. It will, all together including the part you have, as much as a full system would have.).
-CAI (which you have i beleive)
-60mm Throttle Body
-New Fuel Pump
-New Ignition and Wires
-New Spark Plugs

(a big step forward if you dont feel like doing all those bolt ons would be a simple port-n-polish, a bore increase, forged pistons, and there ya go. An engine that can handle some boost).


anything after that is just prepping the car for further success. I HIGHLY EMPHASIZE all those things before throwing a turbo. We all know what a turbo runs on, high pressure exhuast. So, why not get your car a fresh pair of lungs, a better fuel system, and then just chuck on a turbo.

10 bucks says you will see mid to low 14's even without the forged pistons and a port and polish.

Haha, now I think on a forum its not about what you have... its about what you know and helping people. Lets leave it at that ok?

Quit the whining, bitching and accusing... It's getting obnoxious... I don't want to have to delete the thread.

i have some new plans for my neon...what do you guys think?

I looked into a Venom Kit...it's only a 10oz. bottle with 50, 75, 100 nozzles (i'd use the 50) that costs 350.

Then header n' high flow cat-$170

Underdrive Pulley with new belts-$120

Cam Shaft-$185 (a lot of work, but my father can do it with his eyes closed)


I'm guessing the 3 parts will give me around 20 HP and the nitrous will give around 50.

I think i'll be sitting right around 200HP to the crank, maybe 170-180 the wheels.

Sounds like a good idea. You have a nice ride and simple mods at first would be the ideal approach. What would be even cooler would be to have a motor you could put on a stand and completely tear down and rebuild up. That way you could slap on anything you wanted and not deprive yourself of your car. I think those parts would work very well. Couple of afternoons in the garage and you'd be back out on the road.

I use Photoshop CS2 and Macromedia Fireworks 8.0. Natedogg625 uses Photoshop as well. Some of the others who have made their own I cant speak for, but most likely Photoshop, Microsoft Paint, or Paintshop Pro.

I take it you have Fireworks MX? If you have any questions, feel free to ask. I'm using Fireworks 8.0, which is the last and latest version.
