I have a guy here that says the 4g63 is the same in the Neon SRT-4.

He bet me $50 that the same block is used in the SRT as in the Evo.

 

"The SRT-4 used the same block and head as the turbo PT Cruiser; however the intake manifold, turbo plumbing and intercooler are different. The intercooler is a front mounted cast aluminum 8-row unit produced by Valeo. The turbocharger is a reverse rotation Mitsubishi TD04LR-16Gk with a 6 cm² turbine inlet. Tight packaging forced some creative thinking on the turbo. The TD04 compressor has a compressor bypass valve built right into the compressor housing."

puahahah I cant believe any1 could think that...

 

srt-4=2.4ltr
evo8=2.0ltr

 

ummm....i think that you won $50 the srt-4 block is a 2.4L and the 4g63 is a 2.0L soooo.....therefore deffinatly not the same....

 

No , Congrats you just won $50,
but I do love this comment from the site you post. See the Bolded part...
Although the SRT-4 is rated at 230 hp (2004+), it was revealed that Dodge underrated the car's power production. Dodge tested the SRT-4 prototypes on the dyno with a fairly hot intercooler, which negatively affected overall efficiency. Most production SRT-4s in fact rate right around 230 hp at the wheels, therefore crank horsepower is estimated at 265-275 hp. This makes them fairly formidable versus much more expensive production sports cars in real world, "roll-on" situations from 30 mph and up.

 

 

since the weather is getting nicer here at night (Vegas) people are cruising with their windows down. I saw no less than 3 SRT-4 's last night with the front windows down and you guessed it....the back ones up. I dont know why I find that amusing...

 

Your right but I think the reason he thinks that is because the eclipse came with the option for a 420a engine which is an n/a sohc 2.0 that does in fact have the same block as the A850 from the srt4. The heads ports are flipped. So exhaust in the front but they are basically the same block. But he obviously didn't realize 4g63 is the only thing they used in the evos. Although the eclipses and talons came with the options of both the 4g63 and the 420a engine options. In other words, he's glue. 😌
