a zx2 will run even or pull on a svtF in 1st and 2nd gears the svt wont start to catch up till about 80mph.trust me I know a guy with a SVTF motor in his zx2 with the G15M tranny.

and i wouldnt call a 4.44:1 1st gear short




1. The MSP is turbo'd.....there is more power UNDER peak than the SVTF. I haven't compared the two directly, but common sense tells me that is the reason. I'm not sure on torque numbers for both, but I'd be willing to bet the MSP has more torque also....and to finish, .2-.3 seconds in "bench racing" is almost within a margin of error.

2. I hope you're talking about the ZX2 S/R, not a normal ZX2.

3. What's "knowing a guy with an SVTF motor in his ZX2" have to do with anything whatsoever?

PS, let's take this post elsewhere, we are in a sticky that is supposed to be used for noobs, like yourself.Thanx.
