i have 98 neon 2.0 dohc that i want to turbo.....i was wondering if the stock srt4 turbo and manifold will bolt up and clear everything....and i have heard that the stock actuator only allows about 6 pounds of boost...whats the truth in that?

das2123

Yes the SRT-4 turbo and manifold bolt up to the DOHC head. The stock limit is set 4 lbs of boost.

If you want to turbo your neon, you will need more than the turbo and manifold.

You asked about turbos for Neons, well Howell has the kit and has had for years.So if you are serious, check it out.

das2123

I didn't ask about anything. fast98rt did and he asked about the SRT-4 turbo. Besides Howell Automotive's customer service flat out sucks!

thanks for the advice so far.....does anyone know a website that will tell me what i need and how to do it step by step....or anything similar....i know ill need the tubing for the intake and intercooler and i am pretty sure ill have to tap an oil line into my oil pan...but other than that i have no clue...but i am serious about putting an srt4 turbo on my car...i dont want to run high boost so i figured it would work perfect for what i want and be relatively cheap compared to a high end turbo kit....thanks

there is alot to turboing this car..... upgrading your whole entire fuel system your also going to need the srt exuast new pcm or a piggy back unit to control boost and fuel your going to need to need new pistons and rods as the stock pistons are relativly weak and i dought that is even close to everything needed
i recomend going to www.neons.org and research research research!!!

fast98rt

i wont need the srt exaust....i can fab my own downpipe....and 4 lbs of boost is gonna be fine on my stock internals....i just need to know how to do the fuel system....will bigger injectors work....or will i need to do more than that? and why would i have to get a new pcm...?

Love them or hate them, everything you need to turbo your car (yes everything) can be purchased from Howell. This is a HAHN Racecraft turbo setup and it has been used on numerous Neons, comes complete with installation instructions.

Not entirely true...just need to get a 255LPH Walbro pump and mod it for a return line. Type in spoolboy mod in google and at least 24 lb injectors.

SRT-4 exhaust ins't needed nor required and you use the STOCK PCM with either a missing link or MAP clamp.

They handle low amounts of boost quite well. The Hahn Racecraft kit can be installed on stock pistons and rods and run about 5-7 psi.

Stuff needed would be SRT-4 turbo/manifold, oil & coolant lines along with fittings, map clamp, intercooler and piping, turbo 02 housing, downpipe, bigger fuel pump, bigger injectors, and a fuel pressure regulator. You can get a boost controller if you'd like, but won't be necessary if you are running th stock 4 psi.

I thought the stock boost level for the SRT-4 was 14 psi not 4 psi.
Not that it matters, Fast98rt is in need of a lot of expert help or he is going to hurt himself for worse yet his Neon. ;=)

das2123

The stock WGA is set to 4psi.
