I strongly disagree with the statement that the 3.0 is not faster than the 170 HP LPT. Having had a 3.0, then a 2.3/170 and a 3.0 again, the 3.0 is quite a lot faster than the 2.3/170.
And strangely enough, the 2000 iteration of the 3.0 gets me very similar mileage to the 1999 iteration of the 2.3/170, which is MUCH better than I got with the 2002 iteration of the 3.0...
Funny thing is, I think all my cars were built almost exactly two years apart. The 1999 was 5/1998 (yes, EIGHT), the 2000 is 5/2000, and the 2002 was, I think, 5/2002...
