if you go straight pipe it sounds like ass trust me i know. You be better off ordering a resonator from [modernperformance.com](http://modernperformance.com) or if anyone local has one. You can always do the non-fouler trick if you use the resonator

lol, I bought a neon like 4 months ago. Its my daily and its a great one at that for $500. It is white though so it has the classic flaking paint and the driver door is red cause I bought the car with a badly dented door/broken window. I plan on doing the HG, Timing belt/tensioner and waterpump in spring and spraying it with some cheap white. Just trying to maintain this car as cheaply as possible because with my track record of winter cars I might not be keeping it long after lol.

OH, and BUMP!

I assumed it would be something like lubricating the speedo cable and cleaning the electric connection on the harness clip…Am I wrong? lol

What speedo cable? Theres certain solder points on the back side of the clusterboard, that need to be ‘reflowed’. Very simple, just takes patience. Ive done it like 5x now to different boards for different people.

the cluster problem might be to the 12 pin connector those tend to brake in the back of the cluster…just an idea lmk i have one cat off a 2nd gen not sure if it will work they seem the same style of exhaust manifold though…lmk
