i have the 92 & 94 with the same H.P and torque,it is quite evident the 92 has more pick-up and is smoother than the 94.i noticed while reading the chart in the faq under lock-up rearends it states the 92 ratio is 3:91 to 1 while the 94 is 3:31 to 1.this would explain the increased pick-up but not the smoothness.if it ever warms up here i'm going line both cars side by side, pop the timing belt covers,bring both engines to t.d.c.(as if replacing timing belt)and closly compare the cam gear positions (the 94 to the 92).i have a gut feeling the 94 may be off a bit when compared to the 92.how-ever though the 94 starts quicker,but i'll sacrifice the couple of seconds of extra cranking for increased power.what do ya'll think?one other thing,at cruising speed(70 mph)the tach reads the same on both so i wonder if the ratio's really are different?i'll look in the owners manuals to see if they're listed.
