I am thinking about converting the 2.0 to a six with HP in the low 200s, but before I go on with the conversion, how fast will the car be, what other cars can it beat, 0-60 times.

At Phoenix International Raceway the weekend before last I found myself side by side with a Spec Cobra - about 500-550 HP (don't know the weight). My car is a 3.4 and about 325 HP and 2050 lbs. We were in turn 9 at PIR (the slowest corner), I was in second gear and shifted to third coming out of the turn and the Cobra could not pull on me all the way through third. When I shifted to fourth gear, the Cobra pulled away - I'm not sure what gear he was in. I followed him through the banked turn at PIR at about 125 mph. It was a hoot running with the big bore guys. Many were not equal to my 914.
