need more power-97 neon

97 neon · #1 10-31-2005, 03:57 PM

last night, i raced 4 cars, and lost to them all!, i know i have a small misfire problem, but 4 damn cars!,one was my friends 2000 neon, the other was a 5 spd 4 cyl 2.3 liter mustang, 2003 cavalier, 98ish civic, i could understand maybe 3 of the cars i lost to, but a 2.3 liter mustang!, my car has the powerful 2.0 liter motor

140hp supposably, maybe my misfire problem is draining more power than i thought, but still i should have took the mustang, but i wanted to race them while it was stock to see where i could get it to in a couple of weeks without nitrous though, anythoughts?

first of all, its a neon.

swap the srt4 engine if u want speed, or get nitrous

dont be surprised that your car lost cuz its SLOW, like really slow.

save for a more tuner-friendly car. You can spend thousands and still run 14's in that gen neon.

Throw on the biggest turbo and highest HP sshot of Nitrous you can find. Nuetral drop from 5000rpm...then buy a new motor. Or just get some muffler bearings. Those help too...

I still dont have net access from my room, only from the library. The computer services tech here at my school is to busy giving bjs to his assistants to fix my computer. I should be on by next week though, and then life will be frosty again.
