Guess you didn't look at Len's webpage... 10psi, it's also a daily driver, AND street legal.
BTW he's been racing the car since 98 with the original block

Kinda sounds like the aurguments going between the Dakota and Lightning folks eh?
The Viper has 6 extra pistons going up and down...right?? Compared to the Neons 4..
The point is that he took a $16k car, pumped in under $10k in parts and was able to beat out a $60k+ Viper, as well as AutoX quite well with that very same
Neon, and keeping it all street legal.

Oh BTW no power under stock?? Well with just a K&N drop in I pulled a 15.647@87.47 quarter mile.. Not bad for a stock Neon(with a 132hp non-Magnum
engine) with street tires.
