1992 daytona 2.5 mods - 10/3/2007 7:24:04 PM    Rock Kustoms   Posts: 6 Joined: 10/3/2007 Status: offline Hey everyone, I just picked up a 1992 daytona GL, in decent shape, has some rust that needs to get fixed, but that will come in time.  Right now it needs an exhaust, i was thinking of doing 2.25" from the header back, high flow 2.25" cat.  what would you recommend for a muffler? I DONT want it to sound ricey at all, i nearly piss myself everytime i hear some honda drive by.  Im also looking into doing a 2.0 neon 16v head swap, but that doesnt seem exactally bolt on, considering my 2.5 is TBI and the neons are MPI, and the small fact that the intake is on the other side, right where my distributor is.  Im also looking to ditch the 3 speed for a 555, does anyone know if the axle shafts are the same, or are the manual ones a different length?  Thanks for the help, any tips for the car are welcome to.     Post #: 1

Also, there is some great mod ideas for the 2.5s over at turbododge.com. Plus a section on a 16v neon head swap. I would check there. Hope that helps. _____________________________ -92 White IROC RT http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2038370 -87 shelby z with T tops Best Turbododge site--->www.turbododge.com (in reply to flybyuin2.2) Post #: 5

And the way it now revs is totally worth any small amount of vibrations. _____________________________ -92 White IROC RT http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2038370 -87 shelby z with T tops Best Turbododge site--->www.turbododge.com (in reply to jblwired) Post #: 7
