The Si's revving at 4k at 80 is not like ours doing the same. Their redline is higher and stroke shorter so the fuel sipping commences compared to ours just making more noise lol.

Ding ding ding. The 2az has a longer stroke so it can get enough power at low rpm to drive on the freeway(as proven by camry), the civic on the other hand i'm not so sure of. Thanks rangerryda for jogging my memory, I was going to say exactly that but had a brain fart.

Why not the 370? I've been eyeballing one of those for a while... it's pretty 1337.

Wont have much cash left for mods, and I dont really have the ***** to mod a 370 like I want to.

With the 350 I can turbo it right away, and mod the living sh*t out of it with no worries.
