You might have an exhaust leak like my car. Check the manifold-to-downpipe/cat flange and see if the bolts are tight.

Mine is loose and slightly leaking, so it sounds like a diesel when I hit a big bump or floor it from a dead stop.

that ticking sound u are talking about is a normal neon sound, i have owned 4 neons and they have all had that sound. there is nothing to be worried about.

:withstupid: I didn't notice anything unusual. Some distortion in the sound when you punched it from a shitty microphone, but otherwise it sounds normal.

I hear the following:

-hood slamming

-mild ticking at lower rpms

-distortion

The ticking at lower rpm's is a normal condition as it seems a lot of Neon's do this... including mine. Given a lot of people with Neon's have this ticking with seemingly no adverse effects I'm not going to fuss over it.

I think that ticking noise is the injectors but that engine sounds hella nice.

There is a solution... :rofl: more like a good coverup :rofl:

CAI and Exhuast... I'd suggest Borla. There will be enough good sounds coming from the car that it will drown out the annoying ones :D
