Hey i am looking to buy a 2.5" Magnaflow srt-4 exhaust tomorrow from a guy locally and i was curious if it will fit my 2001 neon? or what would be involved?
here is pic of the kit its brand new in the box for 200 cash

It will fit. Be prepared for noise complaint tickets.

Although it's fairly loud, I ran this on my '00 and it wasn't too terribly loud. As long as you aren't at WOT like...ALL the time, it'll be pretty mellow.
On a side note, 2.5" might be a bit overkill, especially since it's an SRT exhaust.

fart can? it's a full exhaust man. muffler in the midpipe. it'll be low and sound decent. it's the volume that's the problem.

I would think that would be silly loud, I know when I put a full stock SRT exhaust on my 2000 (it has 2 resonators) it was stupid loud. I would just be prepared to add a proper muffler at the back, that's what I ended up doing.

i dont think 2.5 is overkill.
all neons except for us 2000 owners, came with 2.25 inch piping that bottle necked down to 2 at the muffler.
i think the srt-4's were the same as well. 2.5 should be the maximum you go on a n/a neon. 3 inch would be overkill

2.5 is what you want on a n/a build however running with out a muffler will be really annoying and loud.

I have a 2000, and currently have a 2.25" exhaust on it. Unless you're truly building the car/engine, I would imagine this exhaust would still be overkill.

it sounds worse than a fart can and could actually slow down your car. not worth it in my opinion. stock r/t exhaust is visually appealing and more throaty than an sxt single exit. dont you allready have stock r/t exhaust?

i have stock piping save the down pipe from my muffler, and the pipe ends at a rice cannon and its pretty loud, i'm not proud of it, but it is funny to annoy people, haha

i was so happy with my r/t exhaust it is respectable. if you are looking for a hint of performance and a "tuner" sounds get a thermal R&D r/t style rear section. or get like a duel outlet dyno max or flowmaster camaro muffler or somethin.
