Long while back my friend in a 01 Z24 MTX raced my newly replaced engined zetec MTX and the results suprised us. They were bith almost dead even. Even after swapping cars with each other. I'm pretty convinced though after seeing a few at the track that this was a fluke and his car was under powered. I know the ones at the track had Cold air intake and probably some other work because they were running 15.4's to 15.9's between them.
