Hi guys,

I have a question for all wira sifus here.

I am deciding between buying a wira 1.8 Sohc or Dohc but cant make up my mind.

What can be upgraded for both the Sohc and Dohc and what are the final hp that I can expect?

I dont wanna swap teh engines but try to push the engines to the highest it can go...

Thanks in advance.

Of course DOHC! The DOHC will make much more power than SOHC.
As for the max power that can be reached, if you stay NA, then around 160-180HP on engine is already pretty good. But if you go with turbocharging, then 200HP or more depending on how much you're willing to spend. (FYI, std 1.8ltr DOHC 4G93T is already making 190-200HP).
