All neons have 16 cylinders, the difference is DOHC=150 HP and SOHC=132HP. Easiest way to tell, take off your cam gear cover and see how many cams you have. 1=SOHC, 2=DOHC.

Most people add a CAI (cold air intake) for around $199 or make one yourself you about $50, UDP (underdrive pulley) for around $100, and exhaust for around $200-$400. You could also add a Mopar PCM for about $150-$200 if you have an MTX (manual transmission.
Modern Performance and
Howell Automotive are the two leaders in aftermarket parts for the neon. I deal with Modern because they are located in Houston, where I am. Stay away from the eBay stuff, only because their parts usually seem to have fitment problems. Oh and if you didn't know, you have a first generation neon.
