if you think all 2.0z are slow then you have somthing wrong in your head because i have a 1989 honda crx hatchback with a turboed 2.0 in it and its an 11 second car and there are still things i can do to make it faster

That CR-X weighed about half what a new VeeDub would weight, plus your engine is no longer stock.

Sel it and buy a car that already has some performance from the factory you will save money and headache in the long run.

One can make just about any car go faster but you might not like the trade-offs that come with it. Depends on your goals and expectations, for drivability in normal traffic, comfort, ride, fussiness, noise, etc.
