I still don't understand how they put the fuel rail on wrong. It only goes on one way? I can understand the tires if they're directional though. Are those the only two things you noticed besides how much slower it is than the SRT?

^ i have no idea. i only noticed when i tried to put my fuel injector cover on. it is in the right direction but lower than usual.

Edit: The wiring for the injectors they put above the rail instead of below. quick fix i believe. also sucks to say but my intake mani looks like dog sh*t now. cause its covered in oil from back in july when the motor blew and the rod went through the block. oh well, at least i have it back :)

And yeah Crystal it felt so awkward driving the ACR after only driving the SRT4 for the past 3 months.

Just snapped a couple side by side pics..........................

So, now comes the question that all parents (or neon owners) must answer:

Which one is your favorite?

Especially if you're parking the SRT for the winter and driving the ACR. If the ACR is the daily it should have the least amount of mods. Put it back towards a damn near stock ACR

Paint the wheels on the ACR gloss black (maybe E-blue lip?), then swap wheels and suspension.

^thanks guys. I think I'm going to hold off and buy new lowering springs and another set of rims next summer. I hesitate to lower the SRT4 just because in upstate NY the roads suck. I almost botton out the front lip every time I even pull into my driveway. I gotta buy some new snow tires for the ACR and then some new tires for the SRT4. I'm also currently looking to find a storage unit to put the SRT4 in. Depends on my financial situation I guess.
