2.0 DOHC swap to 2.4 DOHC in a Neon

[flybyuin2.2]

it was actually easy, friend did the swap i supplied the 2.4 and did the electrical grafting as the 2.0 pcm trying to work the injectors not in its sequence besides the 2.0 intake cam are 180 degrees out 'vs' 2.4 cam as far as timing goes so had to reverse the coil wires, jump injectors and now runs great;) but before i got to leave he asked about a turbo kit for it after a ride in the CSX and now the 2.4 will be getting a turbo :D so i guess i have my work cut out:cool:

[FearThe4Doors]

yay! so now you know how to put a 2.4 into the CSX! LOL

[flybyuin2.2]

no 2.4 for me otherwise it would be in it already but the Dodge dealer in Spring Hill has my supplies covered but no 2.4 PT cruiser motors yet just Status and Caravan 2.4's btw i'm going Twin Cam on the 2.2

You people and your twin cams

<-----------jealous

I am too worried about getting my car done reliable and rock solid to fool around with a conversion that is still in its infancy. But when the tall deck block comes out of the car there is always the possibility to fool around with DOHC conversion ideas.

Back on the neon head idea mike?

Im still looking at my avenger head. BUT, its sitting right next to my 340 block, so i look at that more!!

[flybyuin2.2]

everything is in the works again, friends are trying to get me take the CSX to Nopi but i was thinking the New Yorker will be much more fun:D

340 block:yumyum:

Update!
the 2.4 turbo is running good with 4 psi of boost it ate a 03 Maxima with no problem and will smoke the tires in 3rd gear:D thanks to everyone's help. Ben with the black Neon at Sunshine knows his Neons, as his 2.0 turbo is running 7.80's on low boost since its all stock internals and keeps breaking axles:o that car is bad ass,"Thanks Ben";) also thanks to ACR2NV the turbo out of the CSX don't smoke anymore as my return line was below oil pan which made it push oil pass the turbo seal and smoking bad :oops: its all good now once the FMU gets installed we will put some race fuel in it crank up the boost a little, the bottom end will be at its limits or beyond:o and take her to the track having some fun and breaking axles:lol:

[FearThe4Doors]

dammit mike! stop screwing around with the neons! make the CSX a 2.2/2.5 16v!!

[ACR2NV]

the Neon is getting a overhaul as i type...think big...is the concept with new custom rods and pistons on a new crank...Vipers here we come for ya...i'll see if he can make it to the TR meet

[DOHC_neon]

damn man u got a tight neon. I got a 95' dohc 5-spd w/ intake and exhaust but i am looking for a cheap turbo kit or even a 55 shot of spray (cheap) and i am not goin to mess w/ the internals. So if u know where to get either of these kits please let me know

[340 Dak]

i wouldnt play with too much spray or a turbo if you're not going to do internals. If you're going to go thru all the trouble of making it faster, why not do it right the first time, and avoid "the second time"

as for getting the things... nitrous is available at just about every speed shop online and locally. AE, Jegs, Summit, and im sure a million others. For the turbo kit id go to hahn. But again, with stock neon compression you wont be able to boost hard. Ive never seen a rod in a 2.0, but i dont think they are TERRIBLY beefy.

Also check ebay for both

[340 Dak]

neons.org too for a used setup

Hehe, you ought to see the one I shattered. Beefy would be the last name for it.

[340 Dak]

whats its first name?

[DOHC_neon]

well its not going to matter weither i get a turbo or nos cause i just wrecked it a few hrs ago, some stupid fuc*ing as*shole pulled out in front of me and stopped and he was driving a 67 p.o.s. ford w/ a bed and my car ran right underneath it deploying airbags and all, and whats worse is that he had no proof of insurance so now i dont know if my car is gettin fixed or tottaled (hopefully tottaled). but it suxs looking at my car now i wanna cry cause of all the plans/things i alerady did to it.

[340 Dak]

oh damn man! that fuckin blows! :mad: :mad: damn ferds!!

was it sohc or dohc? if sohc, and if you can grab the chip out of it.. i know someone who may want it:mad: :mad:

[340 Dak]

:( i dont read more than i have too....

[ACR2NV]

[DOHC_neon]

[340 Dak]

the hemi ones?

[340 Dak]

thats right, big block. No, theres some place making hemi heads (and associated hardware) for SBs

[340 Dak]

damn these $900 heads laying here! lol

If i would get new, id go mopar alum

besides, i think its mostly for show. However, they had to design their own intake to match, and they made the top of the plenum removable and dual quad, 4bbl, 6bbl plates to go in just like the big brother

[340 Dak]

dont you guys get Mopar Collector Guide? or is it sitting in Z-hills now?

[340 Dak]
