03+ neons are untunable. Hahn gets around it by adding extra injectors that the stock computer has no control over. The rest of the world gets around it by letting a different computer run the entire engine so you have control of spark, fuel, rev and speed limiters, launch control, flat shifting, boost control, idle control, shift lights, full datalogging, and many other extra options.
ASP - First NGC SOHC in the 13s and the 12s. First SOHC neon over 500whp. First NGC Neon on MS.
