I would recommend a tranny swap first (auto to manual). It'll be 1-2 seconds faster going 0-60. It would work with the auto but nobody has ever done it (auto ZE). I don't know if the auto transmission on the MX3 is any different than the auto that comes attached to the ZE. The MX-3 auto transmissions haven't been the best for reliability to start with, adding 50% more power may lead to problems. Just my opinion.
