Are you taking about a CSVT?? A CSVT is more than a tad faster than a mystique duratec. The SVT has 30 more horsepower. I have a 2000 CSVT(stock) and from my experience it is a tad faster than a vtec prelude(stock). The performance numbers in literature are almost identical. It comes down to the driver.



0-60 it's not that much faster look at the torque numbers.
