Any plans for the airflow/ducting itself? Or just the scoop?

50" Cool. I've got a Sony 36" Trinitron (just finished paying for it- whew) and a DTS surroundsound system. I'd have gone for a bigger screen, but I have a small house and the 36" is even pushing it Mmmm... yummy mudslides. (I have the reciepe for TGI Friday's Mudslides somewhere- might have to dig it out).

Ok. how about dual scoops... You might be able to fabricate a set of scoops that fit in the exact place that the metal screens fit in on either side of the read deck...and funnel the air toward the center of the bay...this would work for air flor really well if scoop was on the deck lid. Would make for some nice airflow, especially if you designed a special deck lid and scoops so that there was more vertical space between the screen and the frame...if that makes any sense.
Some pluses about this I guess...if it was made to fit where the screens are, then is would work on both coupes and GT's, and require no body modification, just pull out your old screens and insert new ones. If you were to make something like that, I'd be very interested in purchasing a pair...since I dont' know much about fabricating new body parts... You would want to make the new part with some rubber bumpers on it, so that it would basically rest on the top of the car, but not dammage the paint, and if you made the scoops short enough...the duals wouldn't interfere with a sunroof.

Ditto....cept mine has no music, only video and voices
the neon has either a 2.0L SOHC or a 2.0L DOHC. The reason why a lot of people turbo the chrysler motor is because it lasts longer then 70k miles turbo charged. The mitsubishi motor suffers from crank walk.
Neons never came with a 1.8 L motor, always been a 2.0 SOHC (135 HP, 120 TQ..Base, expresso 4 dr, etc..)for economy and a 2.0 L DOHC for performance (150 hp, 140? TQ..R/T, sport, expresso 2 dr, etc..)

First off none repeat... None of the 1g's ever suffered from crank walk... crank walk is a problem that began in 96 after DSM desolved! As for 70K thats bs too... IF your 2L is going to crank walk it will happen before you even hit the 30,000 mile mark! Dont believe? Go to www.dsmtalk.com and ask ANYONE they will tell you the same thing. The chrysler motor is J-unk! It has alot of torque compaired to the non turbo Mitsu 2L but its internals arent as strong! Besides its easier to turbo a Mitsu 2L because it bolts right on! Also turboing any 2g that wasnt turboed can be a pain cause its a OBDII system where as 1g's were OBDI... Id just rather stick with an engine that is ALREADY turboed... DSM 2L can handle 600hp stock according to Buscher racing.. www.buscherracing.com!

Jason- The link is right below the photo in very small print. The site is http://www.wholesalehyperformance.com -look under body kits, then misc & aero accessories. You'll find it there.
For those who acquired F&F early... I don't care for low-quality internet hack copies of movies (although I've considered many times downloading a copy of F&F especially when they delayed the release from mid-november until January 2nd!). I'd rather spend the dough and get DVD quality
