Performance Shops - SRT Forums

Wozzy · 02-07-2008, 09:16 PM

Just need a list of some 'Performance Shops' around the Coeur d' Alene area, and Spokane.

Just recently put the SRT setup on my '03 SXT, turbo runs great, spools nice and loud but it's giving me some problems (user error

). Leaking oil like none other (guess I suck at running a return line, and I think I'm running too big of a feed line -4) . Sounds like shet. Needs a tune. It's just a big headache right now.

Heres my mod list so far:
SRT-4 Turbo
SRT-4 Surge Valve
Mopar BOV
SRT-4 Manifold
Mattdog Adapter Plate
SRT-4 Intercooler
SRT-4 Hot/Cold Side Pipes
SRT-4 Wastegate
SRT-4 Boost Gauage
Manual Boost Controller
AOBE Map Clamp
SRT-4 Rear section
Custom 2.5" piping
OBX RRFPR
'uncommon's return line

*everything is installed*

So anything would be appreciated

Wow hopefully someone chimes in from that area to help you out.

Actually send MARBLE a PM. He should be able to take care of you.

Thanks for the quick reply inzanesrt4!

It's just hard to deal with the car right now between, work, school, and the fiance. I try to fix this massive oil leak, but can't seem to do it, and get's a little better, but not totally fixed, garage and driveway look like crap now... Engine seems to be getting louder and louder :|

So its still the reg neon ecu, harness, engine, tranny? Thats a first for me. Most that have done it, did the whole transplant. Curious how it will hold up.
couple of spokane people on here. with any luck they might have an idea. You might find more info on the .org since it was not a total transplant.

Correct.

Yeah I've did all my reading at the .org but I think now it's just time for me to take it into a shop and get it over with.

So you put the SRT4 turbo on the 2.0L? Didn't know that it would fit! Please explain the adapter plate that you installed.

The adapter plate is 2 pieces. The first plate bolts onto the head, and is a matching SOHC, the other side of the plate starts to flare out more to a DOHC, but not quite fully.

The second plate bolts onto first plate and matches the flaring DOHC. The backside of the plate is a full DOHC that the manifold bolts too.

Both plates consist of lots of holes to allow bolting up of everything. Here is some pics. *Not mine*

Haha alright, she said she's ready for the date

.

I'm going to give this another try tonight to fix my oil problems, hopefully I get it right. -4 Feed line, -10 Return line. Not sure yet if I should put a restrictor on the feed line, guess we'll see. I'm thinking of just taking a flared -4 fitting to a welding shop, having them weld it closed, and than drilling a 1/16 hole in there, which I heard is enough oil.

If this doesn't go right, than I need a savior fast

Thanx for the info on the adapter, where did you get it and how much was it?

You can get it from either .org or any neon site really, the cost is some what more expensive now since 'Mattdog' the creator isn't making them anymore, I got mine for $190, average price is about $150+.

Good news on a side note though, I fixed the oil look from the car, but the engine sounds like shet. It sounds like a slight 'pinging'? Perhaps I should get a new oil filter and some new oil, spark plugs? I dunno. I think I might take it to Snows Auto, don't really want to, I don't really care for them since they went under new management, everything seems to be TurboXS this, TurboXS that.

So still looking for help
