If you want to spend the time for it, you can do I true cold air intake by relocating your battery to the trunk (i'd suggest using 4 gauge wire running back from the pos. and neg. to a dis. block to the connections, insures optium power) then remove your stock battery tray (held in by 4 bolts, 13 mil. I believe it was), once you have that out all you'll really need to do is invest in a exhaust tube cutter (you can get one from most auto parts stores, and it's returnable for a return of a deposit). You'll need 2 45 degree angle pieces of 2.5" exhaust pipe, as well as 2 straight pieces of 2.5" exhaust piping, 2.5" - 2.5" cuouplers, and you can get a K&N filter to fit it. Take one of the 45 degree angles and use it to come off the throtle body, make sure to use that pipe cutter to get the hood clearance you'll need (several fittings might be in order), then cut one of the straight pieces down to 9" and attach the other 45 degree angle to it, and use the last straight piece to drop down into the front of the car. Once you are happy with the fitment of everything (make sure you test fit with the filter) use those couplers and some exhaust clamps, as well as alittle sealent if you feel it'll benefit from it and reinstall the finished product. It's an overly dramatic increase in power but it will defanitely help. For extra heat sheilding, you can use header wrap. And, if you do, make sure to soak it in warm water before hand, cuts down on itching and allows you stretch it a bit more, so when it dries, it's a nice, tight, fit. Hope this helps alittle, if you have any questions just drop me a line on my page, and good luck! Latah.

I noticed that you wanted to do some cheap mods to your neon. Do you have a Manual Trans and is it a SOHC or a DOHC. Let me know and I can hook you up.
