150 at the wheels. woOt!!! You'll surely kick the [censored] out of a CSVT.
I was sold on your post until I read this.
Where does 150 HP at the wheels put a stock weight ZX2? At just above 130 at the wheels ZX2's run 15.0's and 15.1's ons treet tires. Neons with the 3.94 trans run similar speeds with similar power. 150 at the wheels should put both the ZX2 and neon well into the 14's. I own both a ZX2 and '95 SOHC neon and as far as straight line stuff goes, with similar power, they are close in acceleration. You have to think of it relative to what you know and not maks assumptions.
