KLZE engine

If I swap in a KlZE into my 1993 Precidia GS, how would this car match up to a Porshe 944?

Hmm good question..the 944 does have more torque than the ZE and the weight diff is not that significant...so would be interesting.

I smoked one once. It would really depend on the driver and the condition of the Porshe. The one I raced was around some twisties and I blew him away. He either didn't have his car in good running condition, didn't know how to drive, or was a wuss. He instigated it by romping his motor while on my a-- and I showed him what was up.

if you get your swap done and race him, let us know how it turns out.

Just wondering cause a buddy of mine has a 944 who thinks it is soooo fast but I think this make take him in a quarter mile. Does anybody want to post their quarter mile times on a similar car and upgrade? Thanks.

Gutted mx3...klze catback high flow exhaust cold air intake. I ran a 14.2 in the Qmile. my friend had a 944 i think that ran a higher time...i think it was a 944.

Well my ZE with a full exhaust and slipping clutch did 15.5 on the 1/4...so I am sure with a strong clutch and good driver it would do high 14s

How about 0 -60 mph times. Is it quick off the line or does it take a while to get up to spped?
