thats awesome, glad you got it running, I have a question though. Ive heard over time about it being the $50,000 neon, what did all that money go into? if it's still slow as you said?

Im going to take a guess from Joe's post that the turbo isn't set up.
So it would be like running an SRT with no turbo. not a nice n/a 2.4 an actual SRT without the turbo.

8.5:1 pistons suck for an N/A car......
The turbo is there, but when I added the AMM manifold one of my boost pipe no longer fit. So, no pipe=no boost.
I just got back from the body shop......$5k to prep, fit and paint the hole car. So for now she will just have to look ugly for awhile.......along while.
Whats left....well I still need to wire up the Crane ignition, the map clamp, rewire everything else so the car doesnt catch fire (lol), take it to the tune shop so they can make my new boost pipe and tune it. Thats it for now.

Well its not a SRT-4, it a '02 R/T. Why is it called the "$50,000.00 Neon", check out my garage for all the info.

No photoshop here. Once I got it off the jack stands I DROVE it down the drive way and washed her. When I was finished I DROVE her back. The brakes......didnt work at all.....the E brake barely worked...but I stoped.
HOLY CRAP IT LIVES!!!!!!
thats awesome man congrats!! oh and i know what you are talkin bout with the brake thing. lol i drove my car without brakes (not far at all), but neon e brakes suck so it barely worked, but i was able to stop....
