SRT4 swaps, there are a lot of people that have done this with Fox Body Mustangs, Dodge Colts, on and on, we like doing it with the first generation Neons. We are building a 96 Neon with SRT4 motor swap, SRT Neon Brake Swap, plug and play stage 3 Turbo with toys, NDETCS traction control and anti lag, Srt Trans with billet components, Rota Slipstream Wheels. Car should weigh in at 2400lbs and easily make 385 WHP. Should run somewhere around 11.00s on slicks with open exhaust. Nothing like having a lot of fun on the street with a car that looks like just a small two door driver that just does not go fast. We also have a 2004 SRT4 Neon all stock and an 2005 SRT4 Neon with some toys for fun. The 1996 Neon is being built for a class called Time Tech.

So do the SRT4 swap, it is not all about the easy was to do things.

Take a look at this Colt that has an SRT4 Swap running rear wheel drive. Looks like he has no problem with making it run or fit.
