That model obviously didn't have DOHC in the year. I think it was swapped or something. How much power would it have (also, any general info? cause I have no idea about the specific engine)

Model: '93 Del Sol Si. What's on the Autocheck : MPI I4 1.6L (D16Z6). What's on the dealer shop sign: 1.6L L4 DOHC 16V.

It's also entirely possible that the guy who put the window sticker on the car is stupid. Easiest thing to do? Check the VIN yourself, pop the hood, and see what it has.

Two engines offered in 93, D15B7 (S) and D16Z6 (Si). Both SOHC.
B16A3 appeared in 94 in the VTEC trim.

If it actually has dual cams you need to get the numbers off the block and head to determine what it really is.

Engine stamp and VIN stamp. Should get both off the car to verify everything the dealer is saying. On the plus side, if the dealer is wrong with any of this, you could use it to get the price dropped.
