This is my buddies slow slow neon racing a dude from the local meet. Has an LT1 T/A, Rear mount (STS?) Turbo System, on about 4 or 5 lbs. Traps about 115+

My friends Neon, bolt ons, stock turbo, stock exhaust, little thing gets away and the videos will surprise you, especially from the dig

Shiftknob im sorry your freinds neon left his *** i would say either he has a slow *** lt1 that runs like **** or he needs a tune.... not ragging but i have raced a stage 2 turbo neon and walked him easy.

 

same here... busted the guy 2 times... once last year (mopar stage I), and again this year (mopar stage II), got him even worse this year with the addition of a magnus intake, a pro-m mass air and tuning... guy was mad... "wait til next year" he said... "yeh, that's funny" i thought to myself, "next year i'll have a 4g64 and a HUGE garrot and not a mitsu turbo... then he'll really be pissed...", i responded "can't wait!!!" with a sheepish grin...

 

I raced a 03 SRT-4 that ran consistent 13.1 ~ 13.2s in my 93 Z28 before I sold it. He had all the bolt ons DR, and cranked the stock turbo up as far as it would go. He jumped me at the first then I ran him down and only lost by 1 1/2 ~ 2 cars. All the 93 Z28 had was bolt ons (LTs, Cutout, CAI, UD Pulley, Chip, 3.73s) 130K on the LT1 with 100% stock internals and was N/A. They can be fast, but a Turbo LT1 should be able to handle a stock turbo SRT-4 especially from a roll.

This isn't meant to bash them, they are definantly pocket rockets and can be made to move.

 

You sure that f-bod is turboed??

If so.. what a waste.

I'd pull the engine out and start over.

I hope you don't expect us to believe that your 14.2 second Talon ate a Stage II SRT4..unless it was your grandma driving the SRT4. I raced a bone stock SRT4 (2004) last SAturday at St Thomas Dragway, against a 120 lb girl who had never drag raced before. And she went a best of 13.7 @ 102.6 MPH, and went better than 14.1 all day long. I call BS on your claims.

 

Man oh man. That F-body got owned ! Props to the little Dodge. But that turbo f-body should be in the 12's if it was done right, maybe 11s.

 

Who is it that says LT1's walk 99+GT's again?

 

That guy need to have that LT1 checked out

 

Exactly!

But wait, all the STS "experts" said that was an awesome system! They couldn't possibly be wrong...just ask them!

Just think, $4000 STS system and you still get wasted by a mid 13 sport compact. If that isn't lame, I don't know what is.

 

Well for all you guys calling 13's....ha. My friends Neon doesn't go 13's...just a tad bit faster

 

The vast majority of SRT-4s go 13s. There are always exceptions to every rule.

 

Sounds like a quick Neon. Nevertheless, I'd be SEVERELY pissed if I had a twin turbo'd LT1 that only trapped 115 mph.

 

"Pissed"?

I'd drive the thing off a cliff to put it out of it's misery.

read my sig. ... the talon is gone (i also ran 16.0 @ 100mph with that (talon)car (1/2 throttle thru 1st gear then full on, i was 6 hours from home and drove the car, and saw 5 dsm's destroy trannys, and didn't feel like walkin)), the car was fast enough to run low 13's but pullin 2.4 60-ft times it just aint going to happen, any who my galant is MUCH faster)... the galant is the car that did the killin'... just fyi...
