GSXRAntwon Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 I have an 03 Stratus RT that I was thinking about modding up to 350hp. I think the entire project will cost about $11000. Do you think its worth it??? Now that my TA is in the final stages I dont know what to do with all the free time Step 1: buy 1st gen neon Step 2: buy 2.4l motor Step 3: buy turbo kit Step 4: 350+whp all day long Step 5: pay me the other 5k that you saved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodRed Posted August 24, 2006 Report Share Posted August 24, 2006 Step 1: buy 1st gen neon Step 2: buy 2.4l motor Step 3: buy turbo kit Step 4: 350+whp all day long Step 5: pay me the other 5k that you saved Very, Very True. My old 1st gen had a 2.4L Turbo from a Stratus from Mexico. Got the drive tran shipped up here and got it rebuilt with a bigger turbo and was about to take it in to finish up the tuning on it when the barn that the car was sitting in caugh fire. Used the settlement on that to buy my Charger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6 Speed S4 Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 not worth modding.. find a better platform imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crow 3g Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 not worth modding.. find a better platform imo its not a bad platform. that car was fun as hell the way it was and was a nice sleeper. 350whp in a stock looking 3g eclipse suprises most people and was well worth the money, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V8 Beast Posted August 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2006 Its not that bad of a platform, but I dont think its worth the money. Who knows, I might make a 600hp stratus just so that I can say I did it.... or not LOL!! I should just mod my Envoy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1647545494 Posted August 27, 2006 Report Share Posted August 27, 2006 you can buy a finished car that makes more than 350 hp for under 11k.... if it has that junk 2.7 in it get rid of now while it still runs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
