Zoom,Zoom, Zoo..... what was that slogan?
Mazda, er Ford messing up HP numbers again!
This might explain why the Miata for 01 with VVT and 155hp has actually been tested as being slower than the previous motor (in some cases)...
to me, 2hp gained by VVT isnt worth the higher torque peak...
Its one thing if you make 240hp from 2 liters. But if you are making 140 before VVT and 142 after... seems like... wait, no... Magazines actually verified that the new Miata is slower...
