I hope u tack welded the pinion gear on your diff with the PG. They are notorious for self-destructing.

He won't be able to get away either....he doesn't have any damn shoes on, lol. Please don't tell me you can run through that gravel in bare feet.

whoops! i knew i forgot to do something with those pics. anyway have fun stealing a dead stock neon with lifter tick nonetheless!

also i didn't tack weld the pin because there's an even better fix for that now, there's these tabs that attach with the ring gear bolts that go over the ends of the pin, they work spectacularly and only cost $5 bucks, sweet eh?

ha, yeah i can't run through gravel with my puss feet- i had my shoes off cause i was washing the car and didn't want to get my shoes soaking wet. i figured someone would catch that- i should have just said i put all my money into my car so i can't afford shoes :P

I wish I lived in a place where it was that warm this time of year.

Looking at your setup I'm surprised the hood fits as well as it does. We were going to turbo a friend's neon but we were going to mount the turbo lower to deal with the exact problem you're having. How about clocking the compressor housing about 30 degrees forward or getting a tighter elbow for it.

Something else we were going to do was hack off his manifold and make a sheet metal one so he could fit a mustang TB on instead. The stocker pointing straight up sucks ***.

this is just a guess, but you are using an FMU right?

a friend of mine frequents the "honda-tech of neons", neons.org and they always talk about how "the afc hack is so stupid, just ask any turbo honda guy they will tell you that an FMU is the way to go..good for 400hp!!!!"



whats your fuel management setup?

No wonder you drive a neon...you dont even wear shoes! :P



Just ------- with ya.The set up looks good.Now your ready to run high 16s :P

you're right i am using an fmu, but not for the reasons stated above. on a neon the afc does more harm than good- the way it interacts with the pcm screws everything up- you go lean then super rich and so on. i really wish i could use it on my neon, it'd be nice to be able to fine tune more.
anyone that tells you that an fmu is better than the afc hack on a honda is a moron- if you've got more tuning ability more power to ya- unfortunately the only other option for neons is either a full stand alone which costs $1000.00 or this thing called megasquirt which i don't have the time to figure out and solder into my car. although from what i hear it's a really good system.
