I saw the car go.
mid 14's or something like that.It cost him about 5000$ for the swap.It's not that bad but i would not do it.That engine is designed for heavy mid-size car for famillies and middle aged persons GM didnt had "performance" in mind, even whit the S/C.Don't get wrong, that z-24 whit that engine is damm fast but i would work on the 2.4,it's got a lot of potential,just go see all the engine parts Mantapart has to offer. http://www.mantapart.com

I payed 1600us for 97 engine with 67k miles and 2000 rebuilt tranny

performance wise, it will blow you away
mid 14's? a simple pulley swap and cold air induction puts u in the 13s http://clubgp.com/cgi-asp/qtrmile.asp
fieros go mid -high 12s with this engine

i raced a fiero with a 3.8 supercharged v6. trust me, he was not running high 12's.
low 14's if hes lucky. cuz my car is bone stock, and he barely beat me.
