Trade your car for a Corolla, or a Prius, or a Smart car then.
The car is too heavy for a 4 cylinder engine (turbo or otherwise) to push around, and get decent gas mileage.

Why do you keep doing this?

Either sell your car, and buy the cars you really want, or just live with what you have.

It is a Mercedes car, underneath all those Chrysler badges.
It is not a Neon.
It was designed to prevent people from messing with the computers easily in order to muck up the works of the car.
If the computer detects that something is out of normal spec range, it throws a code, and shifts into limp home mode, instantly, so that the driver doesn't damage the car.

All of this would be understandable to you if you would listen to what we tell you, and have told you over the longest period of time.

This is not the car for you if you want to have big hp, and turbocharged thrust.

Please give up on ruining this car.

Your attitude makes me wonder if anyone on the forum has actually ever met you, and if you are just yet another internet troll running around loose, stirring up crap to get your jollies.

BC.
