Yes looks like they are gone. Maybe some will pop up on ebay or something.

They do still offer em for the srt4..62mm..don't know if they can be made to fit or not but it would be worth a try if you really needed or wanted one on a non srt.

i pmd cory (modernceo) and asked him if they were gone, here is what he sent me

The 00-05 Neon TB's are removed off the site for about a week to week and half. Check on our website here shortly and it will be listed again on our site with pricing! Thanks !

i think they are only going to sell the silver ones from now on though. and neon4life i'm pretty sure there is a post in here saying that the srt4 and the 1g tbs wont work, but you can rig a 60mm mustang tb to fit 2gs

Any TB will work. As long as the TPS isn't too much of a PITA to adapt. The IAC motor can be mounted independently of the TB as I have done. The only other challenge is the TB adapter plate.

Remote mount IAC

Hell, if modern designed them without the IAC provisions, they could make/sell them for a lot less. It would take a little more thinking to use them tho. An IAC adapter might be cheaper than the machine work to bolt it to the TB. They already have the adapter for the 1gn IAC, and all that would be needed is to bolt that to the simple plate design I used.

Even the Ford TB is getting harder to adapt with off the shelf parts. The Ford style MAF adapter plate that we used to buy from ebay is no longer made it seems. They all went with the 90mm inlet, making it not worth using as a mounting plate/tube. You would need to find anothe adapter tube to go from 90mm to 60mm. The only thing out there that I have found is the one made by Spectre, and there is a hole in the tube that will need plugged by welding or some other means. NAPA sells them under the Balkamp line, but they are just Spectre parts with a Balkamp sticker.
