the del sol is a single cam vtec, but since the power to weight ration is pretty damn good i dont think you will feel much of a difference. the sol's weight makes it fast, w/ mods it can be a very very fast car

It sounds to me that you've never driven a GSR.

The del sol is very light, but regardless...you will definitely notice a difference between a del sol w/ a sohc vtec compared to a dohc vtec...B18c1 for that matter! BIG DIFFERENCE. Dont get me wrong, im a Single cam guy all the way, but GSR's are quick no matter what. A hell of a lot quicker than a sol, guarenteed!

hah your in for a bit of a shock. There is a big hunk of power your losing. The good news is, the d16 is easily modified to get you that power back. My suggestion, boost I love my sol, and i love it even more with the turbo.
