Default sluggish up to 4000 rpm
I have a d16z6. I have never owned a sohc before. The motor feels very slugish up to 4000 rpm. I dont know if something is wrong or if all sohc feel like this. Can someone steer me in the right direction. Thanks keep on building

I'm going to guess that it's just that it's a SOHC, upgrade to a K series.... or at least a turbo B series....
