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.

^^ 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.

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

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.

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.

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 ).

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.
