    my 98 Turbo Neon

    Hey guys I am new to the site and have a few turbo mopars.
    My first car is my daily driver and its a 91 Plymouth laser RS turbo
    My second car that I just bought is a 91 Shadow ES turbo
    and my third car which is my baby is a 1998 Dodge Neon sport with a fully build motor with a turbo setup.

    My laser and shadow are stock but the shadow will not be for long. The neon has a fully build bottom end top end and is going to be running a megasquirt before to long. The car with a 16g went 12.22 at 108mph with 12lbs of boost. Hopefully in 07 The car will run consistant mid 11's.

    Here are some pics of the neon. The engine is painted old school hemi orange

    Nice car. There is someone around here that boosted his neon and has it running on megasquirt too. If he can ever get it to hook up he will be in the low 12s. I think he runs low 13s @119mph now.

    Banner is gone but the hood is going to stay, that is the only way people really know its me, I live in belvidere where the neon was built so there is a ton of these cars around here. Also its kinda nice going to the strip and everyone knowing that I am the person with the neon with the black hood. Its my stamp in the local racing scene

    scott, honestly, Mark should be in the 11's. he has the power to run solid 11's on slicks.

    NeonGTS, Nice neon! I want to confiscate my wifes 98 dohc auto to make a street beast with, but I have to get her something else first.

    Nice car!!! After driving my wife's SRT4 some, and with the way it and my step son's Neon looks, I've decided, if I build another car it will be a Turbo Neon. I like em!

    LOL well the car wont be there, kinda tore apart in the garage. Car is getting a mega squirt and a custom intake made for it so the car doesnt run.

    do you have a website I can go to so check out some more information. I have the Neon and the shadow being worked on so it may take a while for me to get to a meet.

    Thanks
