Frist gen neon Exhaust
hello, i've got a 97' neon w/ the dohc motor and a pacesetter cat-back. sounded nice and all till i put a hi-flow cat on and now it gets a buzzing sound around 2000-3000 rpm. Is it because I don't Have enough backpressure or is my muffler shit? what would be a good muffler/exhaust that would sound deep and throaty and only loud when you get on it? Also dont think so but I dont have an ice-man yet. Could that be the problem?

I don't have an aftermarket air intake on my neon and it sounds fine. It has a aftermarket muffler but I don't what kind. sounds good though.
best of luck. Speedy.... |

suggestion for exhaust
Hi.
I also have a 97 NEON with the DOHC engine. I just did the head gasket in it about 3-4 months ago. I had a plain old glass pack on mine. It sounded pretty good. But I would suggest trying a flowmaster muffler. A friend of mine tried one on his neon and it had a nice throaty sound on acceleration and it kind of mellows out at cruising speeds. |

cool ya'll
Yeah like I siad I put the hi-flow cat on which was pretty much just a resinator. Awsome power gain or at least some feel it power. I did call flowmaster and asked them wut was up and he told me to try a magnaflow. So i called them and he set me up w/ a part #. I got it coming through my work in a few days and will let you guys know whats up just cuz. Yeah i did spell first wrong in the colum. My bad. keep the info coming its interesting.

what where you looking for in sound ?
the pace is a cheep system and wil sound like crap 1st have your header port matched and check the welds make sure it is clean where the collector is then leave the pipe you have the 2.5 right then get ride of the muffler and get a thermal it will sound so nice deep but not to loud |

Might it be your heat shield for the cat vibrating? My R/T had the Mopar Performance cat-back and chrome header and it sounded great, but I never got around to putting a high flow cat on it like I wanted to. I should be picking up the title for it from the bank later on today for it's new owner, I can't afford the payment on the R/T and the SRT-4 at the same time, not to mention both with full coverage insurance too. I hated like hell to get rid of it, but the SRT-4 is just AWESOME!!!!!!!!

dounut
thanks man. I dont know about being cheap and all for a metal ring thing but it worked none the less. Does any1 know were 2 get a cheap IceMan intake? Also has anyone put a AFX underdrive pulley on their car and found that the altnator over charges or doesn't charge. I just want a heads up If it might mess things up. Is it a good power gain?

Hey, Da lightnin Boy:
I know under drive pulleys gave some people problems on the Dodge Daytonas (2.2L 2.5L) As for your Neon, it might mess with not charging when setting still..but once your moving and putting RPMs to the engine everything should work fine, The A/C would be the only other thing I think it would affect but once again with RPMs everything should work fine! Speedy.... |
