First thing im getting.
 
That is if i get the SRT-4. Pretty good set up, but I can't find the cost of it anywhere. :-\

nice. i do wonder how much also. its got to be from 2.5-3K range. sense the car is so new and can all ready do 12 sec 1/4.

i was reading a mag with a SRT-4 with a swapped turbo that gave it 100hp, that thing was frickin fast. i think it would get into 12's after the turbo

That would be sweet man. Hopefully these won't fall apart after a year like other Neons. As for price, just email the fawkers. I've found I've had to email everyone on the freakin planet for a new turbo...people hardly ever put prices up, and if they do it's not what I need.

AzCivic 02-26-2004 06:20 PM

if a neon made 500hp and was half the price i still wouldnt buy one :no:

GT40FIED 02-26-2004 07:48 PM

^^ I sort of agree. They're reliability in the past has been shit and I'm not a huge fan of their looks (or any of Dodge's SRT family for that matter...hood scoops for everyone!), but at least they're making an effort for the first time in 30+ years to make an affordable performance-oriented car, not just seeing how many cupholders they can fit in one car.

pdiggitydogg 02-26-2004 08:41 PM

I agree.
Neons just are not good cars
And any car under $20k with a turbo is "fast"..."whoopitydoo"

Civickid0to60 02-26-2004 09:08 PM

yea, well, i like the looks of the new one. Trust me i hated all the other neons. And if you dont think it looks different then well.....your wrong. And yea, whoopity do, the car runs fast and has a high capability for more power. Plus, its got a 100,000 mile warranty, so Im happy with that.

Civickid0to60 02-26-2004 09:09 PM

i dont think everyone who hated neons before are realizing that it is an entirely new motor, its not just the POS with a bolt on.

ebpda9 02-26-2004 09:13 PM

that looks sweet. i'd guyes around 3-4 k

Hey gt what kinda turbo you need ? i carry ford parts too

GT40FIED 02-26-2004 09:22 PM

I haven't really decided yet. It'll either be a T-66 or another T-76. I think I'm gonna try and save up for a ceramic ball bearing turbo. I'm also gonna dick around with the A/R ratio...see if I can't get it to kick in a little longer. I don't need a whole kit...just the turbo itself. I'm thinking about hitting up one of the heavy equipment distributors around here (believe me, there's a ton) and see what kind of turbos they carry (T-100, here I come.j/k:bandit: ).

Wren57 02-26-2004 09:36 PM

Buy the car before the mods... ;)

Civickid0to60 02-26-2004 09:54 PM

^lol yea i know, i was just excited that they sold the setup all together. :)

Civickid0to60 02-26-2004 09:55 PM

oh and GT40, have you tried turbonetics for the t66?

silver 02-27-2004 01:52 AM

i don't think that kit will cost too much, its just a turbo upgrade, not a big one at that either. it's good to see you have finally decided on a car. i don't mind the looks of it personally, and that warranty is awesome for a f/i car. but yeah...get the car first.

this isnt gonna do you a whole lot of good when you start modding this thing. hell they'll probably void it just for swapping out the exhaust.

Civickid0to60 02-28-2004 09:34 AM

already asked about it. If anything stock on the car breaks down its covered. Its weird but, the only problem ive ever had with any of my cars, are the power windows :-\.
