Well, it's time to call a spade a spade. Plain and simple, the Zetec is not a race engine. A quality engine, yes, but certainly not built for speed from a stop. Let's go through some of the silliness of this post:
A. What's an ATX?
B. "I dominate Honda's"- Quite frankly, and it pains me to say, a lightly modded Civic EX MTX only sees the Zetec in the rearview.
C. I just don't think it's likely at all that you're out there handing a 4.3 S10 it's ass. The math doesn't add up.
D. "I've been racing my old car since 15"-obviously on the street, as I know that no track is going to let a 15 year old even sniff the strip.
This is nothing personal, buddy. Just that some of the info you're spouting off smells worse than a dog fart.
BTW, what you saw was not the resonator. It looks like a long muffler and is located about where the front seats are.
EDIT-Slap my ass and call me Butterballs! 1000 posts!
