You're not going to just be drivng normally and break a connecting rod. Tell exactly what you did, mods, mileage, etc...

 

so you had an eclipse... and now are getting a dodge..

help me understand why you are posting this in the civic forum...

 

:werd: No doubt the Neon SRT4 will smoke pretty much anything out there, but Miamiracer do you own a Civic too? If so, what kind?

 

So let me get this straight you sold your dependable Civc, but an undependable DSM, blew up the engine, made the dealer take it back, and are now buying an SRT-4. Whatever you do don't turn up the boost obviously you are not nice to cars. Kinda funny we told you that DSM turbo weren't very dependable cars and a few days later you are posting that you sent a Rod into the oil pan isn't it.

 

thats what you get for selling a civic. =D sorry to hear your loss..

 

Neon SRT-4....... No doubt.....hmmm..... Interesting...... I know of a Subaru that has its doubts......

 

i own a jeep cherokee it had a CEL i checked it and it was the o2 sensors.. they are fixed now and the CEL went away...

 

What are you talking about?

 

thats my point exactly..
