once again, where so you stand in this chart hydro?
http://www.scoobymile.com/
and on the other thread, you said you can kick my ass, so here is my mod list just for your reference
Turboxs UTEC engine management, Turboxs FMIC, Blitz SBC-ID, Power Enterprise1818 (same hp rating as a 18g turbo at 400hp), godspeed uppipe and downpipe, HKS carbon titanium catback, STi fuel injectors and fuel pump. Greddy airnix intake, STi tranny and engine mounts and Denso iradium spark plugs heat rage 8, Turboxs launch control ( 8psi at launch, full boost between shifts, kinda like a cheating missing fire system) I am no longer using NOS becuz it is destroying my engine ( knock sensor is going crazy while spraying )
upcoming mod by the end of this summer,
STi 6 speed swap, garrett GT25 turbo (shooting for 400whp), maybe just maybe JE pistons and rods.
best time is at 11's with nos about 1 year ago,
now I am shooting low 12's.
by the end of summer, I should be back to 11's again.
I have great respect of SRT4, but you are making me losing it......

Let's face the facts.
Sure the Neon is all grand and all but it is still a piece of shit...Ever since its first release. just becuase they put a bigger engine in it and highered the gear ratio so it can do 96 in 3rd means shit to me.
The WRX has owned up to its name in every way. And its a beast of a car. Originated for a Rally who can beat that.
I would much rather compare a WRX to a reg neon and the STi i will leave to stomping the SRT.....Oh and for the price difference, i will pay much more for better quality.

Geez..A little hostility goin on here...
The Neon hasn't been a piece of "schiet" since it's debut.....Did you completly forget about the Dodge Neon ACR?...That was yet ANOTHER bargain street killin 4 cylinder car..IT was a great car..and now they have the SRT-4.....Sure..The SXT and R/T wern't ULTIMATE cars..but look at their price tags?...How many ULTIMATE Cars can you buy brand new for 11 thousand dollars like you could almost ANY model neon in the past?......Now the SRT-4....Only 19,995 .....Turbocharged 2.4Liter Magnum 4 cylinder .....OH wow..it lacks a LSD...And it STILL pulls 14.2 in the 1/4 mile.....it's a One wheel wonder...and it lives WELL beyond any previous neons expectations...And it completly blew me out of the water when I first read it's specs....Don't clown on a car as bad as you have...because no car in the history of automobiles has had a unblemished past...All models have strong points and weak points...A Neon's strong point is that it's a bad azz car..It's weak point..Is it's a NEON...I can deal with people thinking my car is less than what it really is....Aslong as my car can wax their cars...

Have you ever ridden in one, or raced one?...If not...leave your bias opinions at the door.

Oh god, screw you guys for reminding me about srtforums

I registered the name eXtremeSRT on there a good while ago because of some of their stupidity I found linked on another forum I had to post about, and I've gone back a few other times for more stupidity. Now I've just posted again, I know I'm gonna regret it cuz I'm gonna get sucked back into there

I have nothing against Neon SRT4's, in fact I wish somebody I knew would buy one so I could drive it around but some of those drivers really need to get their heads back into reality. There are a few good people over on that board, but they get overrun by the idiots.

Man, this bugs me. These guys are giving us Mopar people a bad name. The SRT-4 is a great car for the price but some of the claims these people are making is pure bullshit.

I agree, there are a lot of stupid SRT-4 owners out there.

runs 14.2
whats a wrx run?

and the srt4 is rated at 215hp at the crank, but puts 220ish to the wheels and 250ish tq...

(per automobile magazine)

it's not just some girls car.

sorry.

and considering there aren't any mods yet available, you didn't race any modded ones.

LMAO. Right man, you really think a FWD car with 215HP at the crank puts down 250lbs/ft of torque?


I don't remmeber the last time a car could have more HP at the wheels than the crank. Even if there were no friction to the ground you still wouldn't put down the full 215.

Go check your facts, man.

Go check your facts, man.
Check your facts, SRT4's regularly dyno 220hp and 250 torque to the wheels. Just because they're RATED at 215 flywheel doesn't mean that's what they atcually make.

I think the term "underrated" fits well here. Wait.. is that even spelled right? Oh well. It's crazy that the car industry is starting to underrate cars now!

you guys are so far off the mark here.

this has been gone over so many times it really makes me sick.

and you're telling the wrong person to "check your facts".

i live by facts. you should check yours.

"rated" at 215 crank hp, but it somehow puts about 220 to the wheels in every magazine's tests...

"rated" at 245 ft/lbs of tq at the crank, but it somehow puts 250ish to the wheels in every magazine's test.s


do you know what the word underrated means?

do you know about the 60's muscle cars and their ratings on hp? which were regularly about 50-75 hp shy of what they really made to keep ins. co's happy?

or the skyline in japan with **cough** 280hp? right. independent testing shows about 300 or so to the wheels on a lot of gt-rs.

get your facts right?

hmm...


ej20...

you say you've got the sti trans, and a turbo that makes the same hp as an 18g at 400hp, but you want to swap for an sti trans and gt25 that'll push you to 400hp?

explain... i'm confused.

Fly, I know it's hard to sense sarcasm through mere words over the internet, but I was being sarcastic. I love sarcasm. I am sarcasm.
