3SGTE tuned up VS. Civic Single Cam Turboed, i know we talked about these situation b4, but i just gotta confirm wi Options

[chacha]

my friend was braggin' how great his car is and that his tuner was able to push 450 WHP on his 1995 Honda Civic, ported his engine from top to bottom and has a T3 turbo on it...piston and crank as well as all the comparments in the engine was literally changed for performance...i told him about the 3SGTE for our cars and he laughed...never heard of the GT4, but laugh and said his car will run 0-60 in 3 or 4 sec high, i forget...but he will beat the SH*T out of our cars (tuned 3SGTE engines) can this be true? a 450WHP civic single cam beating a dual cam 3SGTE?

Here comes the domestic guy in me:

For what I know, who cares how many cams a car has. It can have one, two, four, whatever. All cams are there to do is performe the valvetrain cycle. Two cams does the same thing as one cam, four cams do the same thing as one cam.

more cams, more valves, more air....

...which is all pretty much irrelevant with forced induction.

People get too worked up over this stuff. Who cares, honestly?
