Umm, just curious. It says for the:
R18 "16-Valve SOHC i-VTEC®" K20 "16-Valve DOHC i-VTEC®" Hybrid "8-Valve SOHC i-VTEC®" Does the R18s single cam really push 16 valves? If so thats news to me , always thought single cams ran 8 valves.

Actually the SOHC 16V design is suppose to be more energy efficient then the DOHC 16V. Wierd eh?
First time I heard of this was in my Suzuki X90... SOHC 16V 1.6L.... that got 20 MPG... maybe. So much for that idea. -Steve |

^^ There might be some truth to that.
N/A motor builder/racer Bisi Ezhoria <sp> ran pretty deep into the 9's with his SOHC F series motors. Ran an insight ![]() EDIT: Bisimoto Race Engineering - About Us Last edited by Darkane; 07-04-2008 at 07:11 PM. |

Its me 2. I hav an r18.
One cam. but she does the job. when i just got her from the dealer. I was taking out stock dc2 ls's... even the gt celicas( newer one). Drag race scene is dead. its all drift and time attack now a days. Although I would swap my motor for the type R in a heart beat. In due time... |
