Absolutely NOT!

dynoed at 114.2whp and 124.4wtq


Stock 2.4L MTX's dyno around the 130's (~126-130/~138 on average) and weigh around 2600lbs. ATX's about 5 less each respectively and weigh ~30lbs more.

Even the lightest stripped down Zetec probably tips the scale around 2800lbs plus.

So significantly less power and over 200 more lbs.

So "by the numbers" - I don't see. I'll never see it.

It just does not make sense "by the numbers" unless it was a misbadged 2.2L POS (110HP/115TQ) Remember the old LS's (2002 or older) has the 2.2L stock. All RS's have this POS 2.2L as well.

Only a true Z24 or a specially optioned & ordered LS 4-door had the 2.4L DOHC engine.

2000 SVT #674 13.47 @ 102 - All Motor! It was not broke; Yet I fixed it anyway.
