SRT4 with a factory options for upgrade turbo's etc

A buddy of mine had one making well over 400whp and he made a lot of money with that car


I always wanted one

Thats awesome to see both sides like that. the srt4 guy is funny shit.
They are fast cars but not my style, never like the small turbo car scene.

FYI......I made that up

[franknbeans]

This was mine. I absolutely loved it. I sold it to pay off my Dodge Nitro to buy the Camaro.



I always found it funny, that if a SRT4 loses a race it's a shitty Neon, but if they win, it's a SRT4.

LOL.

I had the drivers that run the SRT Experience sign the engine cover.

I had a SRT-4 before my Camaro, and it was fun car to drive. Front wheel drive wasn't helpful from a dig on the street, but watch out from a 40mph roll.

Funny thing is, I get to work today and tell my buddy about the black SRT 4 in town and he's like "dude he's making all kinds of boost, has a few grand in it etc" so I'm happy I didn't mess around. The point is that it's still an SRT4. I was simply saying that I could sell my SS and put $18,000 into an SRT4, I just wouldn't. It wouldn't bother me a bit if he beat me from a dig at the track, I could buy the same car and make it faster...I'd just rather do it to this one. You have these children with these NEONS (I don't give a shit what model it is, it's still a neon.) doing all kinds of shit to them because of Paul walker. Fact is, I'm not hating or jealous, congratulations on your neon with $5,000 in it. These aren't justification statements, they're facts.

And to the ADULTS with neons not driving around trying to impress their girlfriend with their blow off valve, I bet it is a fun car, I just couldn't do it.

What I am reading between the lines is that you think you are better than any SRT4 owner because you think you car is worth more money and the "children" that spend money on a car they can afford are wasting their time to modify it and should wait until they can afford a 2010 Camaro? My Camaro is one of a handful of cars that I own, but not the highest MSRP..... I still wouldn't make fun of you for only owning one 2010 Camaro. We buy what we can afford and have fun with it. Don't be a D-bag and knock it!

Car enthusiasts come from all demographics and the love for cars crosses all lines. These enthusiasts ALL help support the aftermarket industry by spending money.....If they didn't the aftermarket industry would be smaller with less to offer all of us. Ride on NEON, Civic, Kia, Cobalt, etc etc drivers...modify your cars and keep spending money.

You're reading the wrong page, bub. There is no implication whatsoever that I am better than anyone, you're making that up in your head so you can make a post about people spending money in a shit economy. My post simply states that I have a $20,000+ car to mod, so I don't care if you bought your car for $6,000 and had $14,000 to put into the motor. I could've done the same thing, I just didn't because I'd prefer a nicer foundation. Whether you chose the easy route or the route you're into is irrelevant. You still have the $5,000 car with $15,000 in it and I am quite the opposite.

I ruined my credit as a young adult and had to buy my Charger cash. I almost didn't even get approved for the camaro even with $10,000+ down and even then got a shit interest rate. Whether I'm smarter or dumber than the next guy for doing that ONCE AGAIN is irrelevant. I chose to get raped on interest, he chose to buy a $5,000 car and throw money at it....who cares? My opinion at the end of that is: at least I'm not diving a neon. That doesn't make better or imply that, it simply means that I, one track minded or not, think that neons are shit. I could care less about the owners.

Paul walker never drove a neon or srt4

Got next to him and he was aggressively accelerating etc. something deep inside me wants to believe that I'd just poop all over the hood of that toy car, but I'm not naive and I know he could be sleeping. With all that noise though, I think it's just more of a washing machine without a door.

Obviously it's turbo'd, but to what level is the question. Driving next to this little guy made me want to get a S/C or a rhino cam, but he's not worth the $2,000-$6000. I want to go back out and drag him to a private lot and see what he's talking about. At the very least run him until his head gasket melts

Do you know what a BOV is and what it does? It isn't like they have a button or setting that turns it on and off like exhaust cutouts. It activates automatically when needed to perform its function.
