nice boost on the teg. My 95 neon was boosted to 350 at the wheels and 366 lbs of torque @ 18psi. Best I ran was a 12.2. Unfortantly she being parted out so I can put some money into the S and pay it off faster. Hopefully my nothing will happen to me beater during all of this lol. Have any pics of your teg?

Yeah, RIT, Rochester for me. Roclife is our local site. For Buffalo, you should check out nyspeed if you haven't yet.

s2000 x, what was the deal with your Neon? I helped a friend build up a '95 as well, ended up at 375whp or so. 2.0L or 2.4L?

Oldschool with all the CNNP parts. Nice.

I think I saw the car for sale on Neons.org for a while. Everyone I know has gotten out of Neons, that car I was talking about has been parted out completely now. It's too bad, it was fast.

Been on there since '03 I think. Same screenname.

I'll definitely be keeping a log. Plan for tonight is to get up 6 or so more fluorescent lights and a workbench. Then I'll move on to checking over the chassis/brakes and replacing the radiator support. If I get that all done tonight, I'll be thrilled.

Messed around with the car for a bit tonight. Mostly just got it turned around in the garage to have some room to work on it and added lots of lights so we can see what we're doing.

For fun, I set the CF hood on it and slapped a bumper on. Doesn't look too bad!


A few of the parts I have...


Emptied the interior of spare parts (more or less)


More of the random parts I have


Not a very interesting update, we're still working on getting the garage set up to be usable, but it's getting better. Hopefully this weekend I can get the car on jackstands and check out the suspension/underbody and maybe start on replacing the front radiator support.
