Neon Challenge

[Stephen J Jacobs]

No, this was an articledone in one of the Mopar mags and also on the web.
 Can't find the URL now, but I digress.

What they did was rented a basic neon, gathered all the parts to build a
slip in NOx system, and installed it on the Neon, made it so they could
return it back to stock when they were done.  Then they beat the thing to
death, literally, and returned to the auto rental agency.  And when I say
beat it to death, I mean crank up they Nox injection until it could not
take it anymore and drive it back with 3 firing. 

Picks showed the install and the parts they used, very interesting
article.  They claimed it was the best money they spent ever.  And it was
worth a good laugh or two when reading.

Take Care,
