the civic is an ECONOMY car in the states nothing esle if they do produce a factory turboed civic they'd probably end up redesigning the entire car and changing the name

Yeah, because all those bazillians of turbo Honda's are so damn fucking unreliable... ahem, and i'm sure a stock block neon could run 12 lbs. of boost completely fine and dandy, considering how they're modern marvels of ingenuity. Bull shit, they'd bust up just the same as a Honda would. Sorry, i'm just getting a little tired of the, "Neons are better than every car out there, and are the fastest around attitude." Anything and everything can be fast just the same, it's just a matter of preference. And i'm not just Honda biased, the newest Si, in my opinion, sux nuts.

I just say screw it and get a volkswagon 1.8t hatch. those cars are sweet and i may consider one for my next car. in my area, it is no suprise to see them hitting high 12's with minor work.

i have no clue how many lbs of boost a neon could take compaired to a honda but i'll tell you one thing the way a neon engine block is designed it could handle alot more added stress of a turbo then a honda block could, if you dont know how the neon engine block is designed then dont be speaking up, later on in life you will relize no motor is created equal in every way so your dead wrong if you think they are any thing like a honda 4cyl besides the fact that is has 4cyls
