hmm now I'm wondering if some of my pops mean I'm running rich...and that would eventually lead to higher NOx readings and eventually toasted cat, is this correct?

Dodge neons may be fast but they just look and sound like absolute garbage. I would rather be slow but looking good then street racing some piece of shit kid/bros car. Fun neon facts, a SRT4 is a neon, I've seen the title. Also the rear windows are manual.

I'm sorry, you could be doing a burnout around me in an srt4, and I'd still be laughing my ass off. No doubt its fast, were not arguing that. But the interior's smell like glue, (most)owners are douchenozzles and well, they're neons.
You do seem to be an exception to the owners thing though, you're not flipping out and calling us all "haters".

i get backfires during shifts, i get the big ones during slow downshifts/rev matching. Also if i feather the pedal , sounds like popopopopopoppop :D Pretty sure im running rich my from my chip and adjusted afm. However I passed California smog with this set up, just a lil on the rich side they said. I do have a exhaust manifold leak at the gasket (missing one stud)

Yah for that much i could finance so many better cars haha. But then again that was 6 years ago and subarus/evos cost a lot more as well.
Originally posted by Toadleg View PostIn 2006 it was a year old and paid 12k (you cant get financed for a car more than 10years old at my bank). Imports hate it muscle cars shun it. I just laugh when people say its just a neon....yes, yes it is lol

My Focus pops like an automatic weapon. But it has very aggressive cams and an ORP.
Cant believe all the hate for the way the SRT sounds. I like the sound but I am not a fan of the car because it looks weird, handles like a horse drawn wagon, and Dodge was so cheap they did not include any models with rear power windows. I have nothing against people who own them. I have people try to street race me all the time but I have never had an SRT try to run me.
BTW. I do not street race, I even got a sticker that says. "Track days: because street racing is for pansies" I also dont care about going fast in a straight line. That is pointless to me. That shows nothing of the driver.2002 SVT Focus for track and DD.
1986 BMW 325E also for track and DD.

it's a 2 liter 4 cylinder turbo. most proven engine in history. of course it'll be fast and sound great.
if i were in the market for a ~2L 4cyl turbo fwd, i'd get a mazdaspeed3 or gti. neons. lol. my ex had a neon, looked exactly like that purple one posted above except it was a 4 door. she downgraded from a cirrusblau metallic e30. what a huuuuge leap backwards. she crashed it into a wall. i told her good job.AWD > RWD
