Hey! I just got a lancer OZ. I know you guys think I should of waited for the EVO thats coming but its too expensive for me anyway. Well anyway I read somewhere about a honda civic being changed from SOHC to a DOHC. I think it might of been in an Import tuner or something like that. I was wondering if that is posible for the lancer or if you think it will ever be posible. I am not looking to do it right now because I have to save till the end of the year you know the zero down zero..... well I am going to pay it off in full by next year then I will get to work. Thanks a lot guys I will check back soon.

 

doing that is stupid and pointless...you will not notice any gains...i forgot what exactly dohc does over sohc...i think it has something to do witht he valvles but anywals all mercedes benz use sohc and alot of other cars...so its not like its inferior...dont worry about it

 

Cams are among the last things that should modded. Freeing up the airflow, intake and exhaustwill give you the biggest bang for the $.

Dual Overhead Cam uses a seperate camshaft for the exhaust and intake valves if I'm not mistaken.

 

you will see an increase in power going dohc
haven't a clue which dohc mitsu head will bolt on though

i'd definitely go headers back and get an intake first
