its not an upgrade at all. SOHC ZC and A6 are the same motor.

wAIT...they are the same, only difference is the CAMS....zc have HOTTER cams than the A6...therefore compression rating is bumped up sum...not sure the exact number, but DEFINATELY RAISES.

Minor differences in the cam and possibly ECU programming make the extra power.

i got the 11.5:1 from a calculating the cc of the head, the stroke, bore and so on.. there is a D series CR calculator on the zc website.. i just dont want to put it on tere and have the valves hit the pstons.. any idea what timing belt i would need?

Its the same ******* motor dude. Buy parts for an A6, because thats what it is.

The zc cam is slightly taller lift, and slightly longer durration.

THAT IS THE ONLY MOTHER ******* DIFFERENCE.

Honestly, I'm going to start reading locations on posters and then I'll know if it's worth reading.

It seems CA and WA have the stupidest freaking ricers ever.

Both are democrap filled west coast states, shocking.

I hope all that falls off and goes over to china, we don't want it. We'll take the north pole back from russia in a trade?

Ehh... worth a try.

*tear.

We were nice and told you the calc was wrong and they even say take with a grain of salt.

go find another 18 second car to putt around in flexing your arm out the roll down window, I really don't care.

PS... out of my 3 cars, only one is a Honda buddy
