What will it take to beat the average Ricer at the track?
I was curious on what it would take for my se atx to beat the normal ricer crowd at my local track? would my only real option be to boost my 2.0 or to swap in a 2.4 n/a (dont want srt 4 motor) ?
thanks guys Im just curious on what I should do

My guess would be with the little stuff, like exaust, intake, and maybe even cams. it should. If not run about the same. If you had the money and time, a Turbo and MS with a good tune should beat them all day. Of course the Mtx would do wonders as well. I wouldn't even recommend putting that much power to a stock Atx.03_neoviper wrote:haha well I know Id still be limited by the atx shift pressures and shift points even with a megasquirt ... but the question would be ....will it beat a honduh?

well Im still learning alot about my neon as its just sitting in my driveway with no issues and not eating anything .
I had a different idea . If I understand correctly I could do a 2.4 NA swap (megasquirt) with a 2000 31Th atx (requires no TCM hydraulically controlled) ditching the ECM limits and the TCM limits . I know the 31th has alot of aftermarket support also .
I am not against a full mtx swap but sourcing parts and Knowledgeable people are hard to come by around here

Depends on if it's an autozone ricer or a ricer with boost.
Unless you really load them up you aren't going to get anywhere with an auto.
In the end, build it for yourself not some attempt to beat another car (unless you are into class racing) because there will almost always be someone quicker.
