I'm really dissappointed in everyone here. Rennlist is supposed to be about helping other enthusiasts, and we have clearly turned our backs on this poor soul.
IF you are still out there lurking, I would like to help. You will probably be able to free up a little more hp (probably break 200) if you polish you head and intake. The best way to do this is to put the stock air box back on (Don't worry, you can put the K&N back after modifications are complete)... you then discard the filter element and fill the air box with glass bead blasting material until it is close to running into the airflow sensor. Put the lid back on and the car will polish itself right out. This actually works best if you are street racing, as you drive, the glass will polish the intake and it will "come on" almost like a spooling turbo as everything becomes mirror smooth.
PS, im not a mechanic so take my advice at your own risk, I have heard it works well. I never tried it on my old NA because I was afraid if I broke 250 I would start breaking transaxles.
Good luck with your car.. I freakin love the neons!!

I think my N/A pwns - it mysteriously had 11.5:1 compression when I bought it from the junkyard for a few hundred bucks - It worried me but the car seems to run correctly not too lean or rich. It might have what an extra 5-10 hp from an increase in compression like that so maybe 160hp - maybe... it was abused when I got (obviously owned by some teenage rice burning idiot.) Its no drag racer and my best friends toyota camry gives it a hell of a run for its money, but Im still happy with it - its a great driver handles well etc - has taught me tons about Porsche, and it has great lines and curves to it. Im love the car just the way it is and im 18 years old - so dont blast all us young people!!! >_<

I feel really greasy about reading this, but I agree.
...and that's why it's still going STIG.
