hey whats up im drivin a 95 neon and was wanting to know how much it would cost to get a good used srt-4 engine....or should i just get the turbo off of one...which would be the better route and how much

thanks
cody

 

around 1,000-2,500. the turbo is 200-300. you can use just the turbo but itas kinda a waste because you really cant run high boost without blowing something on a stock motor. if you want cheap and good amount of power get a 2.4 block(i have one for $100) and go to dodge and buy srt pistons/rods (300) right there $400 for basically a srt bottom end throw a stock dohc head on and the srt turbo and your looking at a almost new 2.4 srt motor for 600 and can run the stock wire harness on the older 2.4 so you dont have to deal with the srt wiring crap.

 

+1 on what he said..2.4 srt internals and ride out.I had a 2.0 turboed and it broke the ringlands on only 11pnds 2.0's are gay..I,m going to spray the crap out of mine till it breaks and swap a 2.4 in after it explodes.

 

the thing is i dont live anywhere near tampa...i joined this site to get some info on it bc i couldnt find anywhere else that could help me...you guys seem pretty knowledgeable about it...i live in huntington west virginia

 

if you need a 2.4 i have a complete bottom end minus pistons/rods ill sell cheap. i was going to do the 2.4 srt but got a runing 2.4 with je pistons already assembled and running. by far best band for the buck and simply throw a dohc head on and the srt turbo will bolt right up you can run 15lbs all day no problems

 

so im lookin at about 800 for the set-up...2.4 srt bottom end with a dohc head and the stock turbo kit

if anyone has aim im me and we will talk more

Uncfan:This site has some usefull info...Neondriver: I got some friends with 2.4's let me see what there asking and I'll get with you about yours.

 

+1 neons.org has the most info than any other site on neons. if interested i have the 2.4 block, bed plate, 2 oil pumps, 1 waterpump, 2 cranks one good one had spun rod bearing, a good stock clutch/flywheel, oil pickup tube, oil pan, removed balance shaft and chain but needs hole plugged, 2.4 valve cover, even have a 95 harness setup for the 2.4 motor with resistor box for dsm injectors, all for $75

 

Yea, Neons.org has all the info you could ever need about this. Plenty of write-ups, pictures & info. You can contact me on AIM if you'd like: Nickisa0

I just finished a 2.4 turbo swap in my R/T so I can tell you everything that you need to do.

What you're basically gonna do is buy a Stratus 2.4 motor and turn it into a low-budget SRT-4 motor. You'll be using every SRT-4 engine part besides the head and the crank. Then just change the firing order for your injectors and spark plugs and install a motor mount adapter and you're done.
