That all depends on a lot of things. How well the car has been maintained. How its been driven the first 50K miles. There are a lot of variables. There is no "yes or no" answer. Do you have the full history on the Neon? :)

My car has never missed a service interval, never abused, just the usual 12 to 15k yearly mileage. I am the 1st owner....

In that case, you should be ok. Maybe someone with more info on the forced induction subject can chime in and tell you more. IMO, it looks like you have a nice well maintained slate to start with. Good luck with it and have fun. :D

chances are... you'll have problems out of it no matter what your mileage. I felt like I was trying to rope a steer on acid and steroids when I put my turbo on... :lol:
