Exclamation My 7thgen Ex Vs. 2003 Neon

Could a 2002 Ex (5-speed) with I/H/E take a 2003 neon (5-Speed) with intake and Exhaust?? Everyday i'm at work, this guy in that neon always rolls by, especially when i'm outside, and revs the hell outta his car just to **** me off. I can't stand this guy. All he has is an intake, exhaust and silver tint and roolin on stock hubs, thinkin he's bad as ****. Do you think i could take him or what? I wanna know what i'm up against.

Yeah you should be able to take him. I have taken one with my
auto however he was also driving an auto as well. So in your
case I would say it comes down to driver's skills.

jttegx has a spectacular aura aboutjttegx has a spectacular aura about
if u go to the dodge dealer and read the sticker label will say "200x Dodge Neon Srt-4"

i think a ex could take a neon. assuming you have decent driving skills. make sure to play it safe though, hes just a random guy and u never know whats up his butt in the beginning and/or the end.

What if it's an R/T?? R/T's have 150hp vs. the SE's and SXT's 132.

not an r/t why? they aren't that fast. actually they are about equal with us. they run low to mid 16s stock with a good driver.

/\/\Yes they are slow as crap! I raced that dude with the neon yesterday after work. Spanked him by 2 cars. We raced from a dig. All through first it was a drivers race, we were side by side. Mid way through 2nd i started to pull a little. By the top of 2nd i was 1 car ahead. I pulled a little slower in 3rd than 2nd but still pulled. We shut down at around 90. Oh yeah, and it was an SXT. I don't really think the R/T's would be much faster, i think it would be a fair race with a R/T

i dont know, i had a 4dr neon as a rental one time and those things feel pretty quick in acceleration and it was an auto. i was able to hit 125 in that thing easily unlike my vic that it would take a little longer, but i dont know what kinda model it was though. i always thought that neons were just faster since then.
