You'll lose no matter what. You have a 70hp 8-valve engine. With the modification you listed, I'm willing to bet you no longer have 90 ft-lbs of torque either. I have a '94 CX with the same engine. At one point I had a short ram intake (taken off for obvious reasons), and a ghetto rigged straight pipe exhaust (original rusted out), and a huge hole before the muffler (an inch and a half tall and about 5 inches long). With just that stuff, I had to rev the crap out of the car to get it to even move; aka bye bye torque. Not to mention the ridiculously long geared transmission. So no, don't race anyone, just enjoy what good fuel economy you have left.
