Yes, please give feedback and input. :thumbup:

Seriously, anything and everything that you think of, we want input on. Our own brains can only think of so much...until someone else says something....and we say, "oh yeah. I should have thought of that". :)

Maybe wanna include that Rage Tek makes solid control arm bushings...I don't believe PSI fi makes them anymore

ATX:

-Include section about auxilary cooler benefits...(Better shifting, less notchy)
-Solid mount insert are available



Q: Is a 60mm throttle body a good performance modification?

Felt the response was kind of lackluster. For those who have it, it's possibly the best mod done to the car. As a matter of fact, my car is almost completely stock aside from this...refuse to take it off even for DD purposes.

Q: Do SRT-4 wheels fit my Neon?

The tires and rims will fit with a 5mm spacer...been saying this forever :rofl: I would bang up the strut just to be on the safe side, but it does clear. And snowflakes WILL fit on SRT front brakes.


that's all I can think of for now

Thanks!

Concerning ATX: I haven't had a chance to do anything at all with that section yet...I'm planning to put the info you mentioned, as well as RMVB info.

Concerning 60mm TB: I just read the "A:" that is there, and I don't remember writing that. It must have gotten edited by someone else. I also feel that the 60mm TB is a great mod, even if it only shows 1-2whp gain on the dyno.

Concerning SRT wheels: I know that they will fit, but it's just too tight....especially if the tires are new. Banging on strut perches can be left up the person doing the banging. Also, I don't like recommending spacers to the general public when they can cause problems for an ill-informed individual.

Q: What size tires do I need for my aftermarket wheels?
Might be good to add 225-50R15 as a common tire size in the 15" category.

Also a list of 14" tires.

Also list common recommended wheel widths with the tire sizes?

Maybe list stock tire sizes.

Fo shizzle. I'm sure the 60mm does next to nothing for HP...but butt dyno is what it's all about!

I agree with you on the SRT wheels, and I would hate for somebody to slow up. So yeah let's just stick with thinner tires or spending $50 and getting SRT struts

The General Information section has a trim level list (model/year) and there is an Engine Specifications topic in there regarding specs and differences.

What about an interior section, with speakers and electrical stuff, as well as bolt sizes for seats and all that jazz. You might be able to sneak in something about gauge color swaps.

Not a bad idea, we'll look into it.

Maybe post these PN#'s with the oem sways.

viewtopic.php?p=553630#553630

I could get the other sway numbers, just need to be matched with the sales codes. If you would like.

You measured with a caliper I assume? This is news to me, I wonder what the deal is with this.

yeah, it's news to me too, and if by caliper you mean a creasent wrench and a tape measure then yeah, lol. seriously though, i did measure an srt-4 front (and that came out to 24mm) and a 14mm rear all with the same method and all measurements were consistent. actually now that i think about it, my friends dad did measure his front ('03 se) with a caliper and that was 22 as well..

Hey, is the FAQ still helping any Neon owners out these days? I know our beloved Neons are slowing but surely dwindling in number. Keep the HI alive!

I use it weekly, cause I'm getting old and forget things so easily. The Wheel and Tire one has been really helpful lately.
