i went and looked at it and it wouldnt rev past 5k even when i mashed the pedal it didnt really go anywhere and shifted at 5k every time and made 5lbs of boost. it was a 4spd trans if that makes a difference. i thought neon transmissions were 3spd. but also had a bad sputter at idle and when comming to a stop feeling like its gonna stall. and the air/fuel gauge didnt work. they told me that is was because of a realy that was around the throttlebody.

but the dealer did call me back and say that they fixed it and it dosent sputter at all anymore and runs strong

Wait a minute. So that's an automatic car with a 2.4 SRT motor? WTF

And lol @ the comment

"Faster than a SRT 4"

I'm starting to doubt that is Graphite_SRT's car now.

most definitley graphite srt's car, for more info check his progress log, the tails and fat 5s give it away

It wasn't that bad when he had it. I'm assuming the dealer or someone in between beat it up.

Also, not all neon transmissions were 3 speeds. The 02-05's came with 4 speed trannies.
