    Welcome and Ohh you sound like me when I first got my car..Mopar BOP and all...the car is quick stock but just not fast...when you start to get bored with the not so fastness of the car your mind changes...I thought I would keep the stock turbo and do stage 1...well that was a waste of money cause it just doesn't suffice...well I maxed out the stock turbo by ALOT and the best dyno was 300whp and 335ft lbs (after that just blowing hot air not very effiecent and reaches a plateau)..That kind of power is not bad but not enough...Soo thousands later I'm almost there! But don't waste the money on stage upgrades (unless stage 3 of course) becuase you will always want more...Go all the way or go home....just my from somebody who wasted way to much money on a Neon....But it does make me
