the 1.8 has 122 hp and the 2.0 has a claimed 130, which is probably 115 at the crank and 100 at the wheel if that.

 

 

im sure it could, only way to tell is to race.

 

With equally good drivers and equally equipped vehicles (i.e. no auto vs. manual) I'd bet on the 2.0 ES. It seems its manual transmission has been tuned more towards acceleration vs. top speed (shorter gear ratios).

 

2.0 all the way!!!!!!!!!

If the 2nd gen 1.8 is the same as my 1st gen 1.8, and it's a stick, I'll pick the 1.8 over the 2.0 I've taken many 2.0's (including a couple of MP3's and a Mazdaspeed) with my 91 LX (1.8 DOHC).

OK you just said you beat the new Mazdaspeed Pro with your stock 1.8?

Your joking right??

 

yea hes joking don't you see the red nose he has!!

 

You haven't seen his pro. He probably has one of the fastest ones on this site. Maybe not the fastest one on the site, but he's up there.

 

well then of course he would win. But if both was stock then......." Sorry 1.8 , Please try again "

 

Yeah, sorry about that. I fogot to mention that my Pro isn't stock. Anyway, don't forget that it's not the car but the driver. I've raced and beaten certain cars that should have killed me just becuase of bad driving on their part.
