hope its not just for looks

whats going on this weekend?

Aweee.... you should have left the grille there so the FMIC is hidden

So come with it... lets see some underhood pics, I hope that thing is hooked up and not just there for show.

Nope, it's not hooked up yet. Done the fuel system. 42 lb injectors with a CF FMU regulating E85. Probably a week or 2 and it will actually do something for me. Doing a 16g on a pretty average log manifold. Fairly tame setup for now until I build the motor. Too bad money doesn't come all at once...

Can I race you within the next two weeks so I can say I pounded a Neon with an FMIC/turbo setup?

Sure, if you can break into the 15s. heh...

Not for an ATX neon without a turbo, it's not... heh

didn't you run 17s fully stock

TheRandom1 · Post by **TheRandom1** » Tue Aug 15, 2006 10:44 am

I know my stock SXT ATX ran mid 17's, so yeah... should be hard for him to beat it.

Hey now... That was my very first run with the Neon like a month after I bought it.

My best is 16.2, but I've done exhaust and fuel since then. My guess is around 5-6 total hp gain.

I'm hoping for high 13's.

Alright... Maybe low 16's?

If you're still using an auto, try low 17s.

looks like my car in a few years

keep us updated.

esteinmaier · Post by **esteinmaier** » Wed Aug 16, 2006 1:05 am

Few years... lol. I bought it new a year ago. Actually, OB, I really like your car. Doesn't need a turbo or body kit to be cool.

OB · Post by OB » Wed Aug 16, 2006 5:35 am

thanks bro i appreciate it. Ive thought about keepin the car away from the boost and just buying another car, but something about the underdog-neon thing just makes me wanna do it that much more. stealth beast.

I bought some altezza's and an aluminum wing... then slapped on some homemade vinyl stickers all over... I should run low 11's, high 10's

Can't wait to see the finished result!!!

Better picture of it:

Since then, I trimmed the remains of the cross-bars out, so it looks clean.

All that's left to do is piping, oil lines, and gauges, and this puppy is boosted.

Just got the stage 4 CM 4-puck in. Chirps 4th now.

Btw, the wheels and tires are for sale... $300 if someone wants to pick em up.

Post by **Diablo0** » Sun Aug 27, 2006 4:57 pm

You should have left the cross-bars in to hide it better
