pretty unique!!!

Which car did the steering wheel and trans come from bro

DO you have more details about the swap? Can it be adapted to the stock 5 speed trans?

I did build a second one of these cars, and it had refinements from lessons learned on the last car, namely in the area of tuning. I sold that car recently, and you may see a white 2005 SRT-4 automatic running around the Mobile, AL area. With that, I am no longer tuning or building any 2.4L platform cars. For future SRT-4 automatic builds, I recommend @duster360 from Needless Torque Calibrations (www.needlesstorque.com/) to cover tuning you may need. Most other information you need is covered in the comments in this thread. I will try to periodically answer questions as they come in, but I am not accepting work to convert your car, nor do I offer kits, parts or tuning for these anymore.

What did you get automatic transmission out of

How could I contact you?

I’m trying too put a 2.4t in my 2005 neon auto sxt which is a 40te but can be made into a 41te by installing the clutch drumb, I’ll need too modify the intake , intercooler intake, harness too make it all work correct?

How do you take over the issue of never getting in boost on 4th gear? I have the PT GT and its a huge NO.... Never boost on 4th gear

Love it, I miss my neon.

What transmission wanting to swap mines out to automatic

If you come to Middletown, NJ with this, I might be interested in buying it!!

Would you like to sell it?

This is awesome and sounds exactly like my 06 pt gt H.O! I can hear 2 different whistle sounds from your turbo, is this normal? I only ask because since I removed my stock airbox, mine makes the same whistle as yours.

Do you have any social media accounts for contact?

What radiator is being used?

Ultra drive FTW. This is actually a very good pairing when you get the right converter. I recently tuned a build that went 9.50’s running one of these; it was an aluminum rod 2.4 on a Gen 2 PTE 6466 peaking 37-38 #’s in a 98 RT chassis. Race weight was around 2300lbs and the thing rolled out HARD. This car was running a really right converter from Sonnax and the 60’ was amazing.

Could I use the transmission from my pt cruiser touring (turbo). If I’m not mistaken the touring (turbo) and the gt are mostly the same.

No.

Can you help with some instructions in things to note when doing this. I have a manual transmission that i am hoping to swap with my old automatic transmission

Love this transmission swap. Simple, but different. I'd love to see it on a strip against a stock SRT4. Never gotta let go of the boost.

Hey if you were to sell one of your automatic srt 4 neons how much would you sell it for?

Were you able to use the pt gt half shaft to have equal length axles? I'm in the process of getting everything I need to do the conversion. I have a complete running 03 pt gt with a mopar stage 1 pcm injectors and the mopar bov plate. The insurance company totaled out and I bought back from them. I'm just trying to figure out how to use the equal length axles on a 2003 dodge neon sxt any info you may have on this would greatly be appreciated. I am disabled and can no longer drive a standard.

Wtf

I have had lots of people ask me what is involved in this swap. There's a lot to it, and it is not for someone without at least some fabrication and electrical skills. Having said that, the formula is fairly straightforward. You'll need: 1. SRT4/PTGT engine w/SRT4 intake manifold 2. PT turbo transaxle w/torque converter, flex plate and starter 3. PT PCM (GT much preferred) 4. 03+ Neon Automatic left axle 5. 03+ Neon automatic transaxle mount 6. Transmission cooler (I got the largest generic one I could from the parts store) 7. Wiring (options include using the PT transmission wiring and splicing yourself, or sourcing and overlay from Kinnetic Kreations) 8. Several pieces of 2.5" aluminum tubing, silicone bends, etc for cold side pipe fabrication 9. Ton of small items like ATF+4, hardware, etc 10. Automatic shifter, cable, bracket, and brake pedal, if converting from a 5 speed Bolting the transaxle in is the easy part. Get the shifter, cable and brake pedal done, if your car is a 5 speed. Get those mechanicals done first. Next, figure out how mount your cooler. I mounted mine to the AC condenser, and it fit just perfectly in the sheet metal cutout up front, but I did do some clearancing of the center core support. Intake manifold will need to be pie cut to rotate the throttle body up and away from the transaxle. Mine is almost parallel to the crankshaft. Will need to fabricate the cold side pipe, and it will be extremely tight. I cut a small amount off the intercooler, to move hose forward about 1 inch, which helped a lot. Have to get creative here. After that, wiring. Study the manuals, or buy the kit from Kinnetic. I highly recommend tuning on the PCM from a reputable tuner. For PTGT PCMs, you can use Diablo. For non-GT PCMs, I think the only current option is the Syked tuner. Can Autostick work? If you're willing to do the wiring and the work needed to make the shifter work, then yes, but you'll have no Autostick display in the cluster. FAQ: Can you use the 40TE from a regular neon? Sure. It will blow up. Maybe not immediately, but it will, and for no net gain vice using the 41TE Will I do this conversion for you? No. Your only chance on that is if I decide to sell the car I recently completed. Do I know of any shops that will do this conversion? Not offhand, sorry. How much power will the automatic take? No one is really sure, but there are several PTGTs in the 400whp running just fine. Recommendations: 1. Rebuild your transaxle while it is out of the car 2. Install the available differential saver brackets, if yours is not already equipped 3. Install a shift kit (worth the <$30) This is mostly likely not the only way to accomplish this, and also likey that there are better ways of doing it. I hope someone picks this up and does an even better job than I did in the future.

2020 update?? Yes no?

Can I do his myself?

How many neons do you have?!?!? And what rims? Beauty.

Dang that is AWESOME!! Can I have your email or number?? I have an automatic sxt that now looks like an srt4. I want to swap engines and keep it automatic for my gf. If you could contact me so we couldtalk? I'd like to know mode info on this project? 7174517836 or 86colton86@gmail.com my name is colton

0 to 100 real quick

Is there anyway you could email me of the best economic way to go with this auto swap? my daughter has an SXT and it has a warped headgasket. I'd like to do an swap w an auto. I've read to use trans out of a pt gt and the pcm. If I use that entire drive train I would have to change the intake correct? can you please email me? cthalite3@gmail.com or Instagram untouchables3 thanks.

how long did this swap take and whats the cost? i wanna do this manuals in traffic is a pain. these cars are Rare everyone has the srt8's i would like to do an Awd swap too. i wonder if you can swap it from the caliber R/T awd, but thats a freaking CVT smh.

I love the video! Very well done, sir! The fuel for my ambition to start a future project!

I have the Same exact plan. How much did you invest in this swap?

Do you still have this?

What ECU do you run to do that swap?

So is is a regular neon trans?

Is there anyway you can do a video showing the steps (pointing, not doing the build) and how it all looks from underneath and such

You seemed to be a bit nervous on second count...3 seconds later I discovered why :D

I'll stick with my row it myself 5 speed srt4 ;)

Assuming you still have the car or remember the build, did you happen to have a Greddy Type FV blow off valve by chance? Your car (other than mine) is the only one I've heard that makes that high boost whistle/whine at WOT.

I think u should make more videos on it

Why

What bov

Wow man how many SRTs do you own ? Im trying to buy one right now in south FL not going well

I didn't heard any popcorn sad day for an SRT

When I first saw this I was shocked saying “no they ruined it” then they did a pull and my jaw dropped. Well done. Very well done

Did you have to do any modifications to the wiring harness?

interesting, but hey, were you missing the pcv hose?

Very nice indeed. Could I utilize a pt gt auto along with the pt s pcm to install into my srt?

I'm about to do something similar but my neon is a 03 SE automatic with the 2.0 and I'm swapping the motor for a 2.4 out of a PT GT,i was considering a trans swap too but the donor car is also automatic and my automatic is completely rebuilt case and all with only 10k on it so it just seems like a waste to pull it
