his car will destroy an srt with out much a problem but like he said hes only on .5 bar with an exhaust leak. The car still pulls but the few times that we have turned the boost to 14psi its just nasty...that and sirrelix isn't that experienced at racing yet..but do not worry have allen race him for you...and you will also get plenty of practice when I get home next year.

The Z06 is still a Corvette
The Firehawk is still a firebird
The SVT cobra mustang is still a mustang
They made a srt4 out of a neon its called a neon srt4.
They still fall apart @ 80k
They look like a neon
They still run like a neon
conclusion : IT"S A NEON SRT4

I have one question. WHY, other than the obvious POS association with the 'normal' Neons, are SRT-4 owners SO reluctant to admit that it is, in fact, a NEON-based car?
Carol Shelby never denied that he took the body from an AC to build what became his powerhouse namesake. I realize that the SRT isn't quite in that same league, but it IS a Neon body, interior and some other components, right?
No one (at least not me) is trying to say that these cars roll up in a parking lot and say "Hi." like those dumbassed commercials from years back. All we're trying to say is that we know where they came from.
My guess is that you would rather say you got beaten by an "SRT-4", which sounds kind of cool rather than say, "I got my *** handed to me by a Neon".
I hope I'm not too close to the mark, but methinks I'm on to something.
