The DOHC comes with 155 hp, and the SOCH comes with 140, but the DOHC has twice as many valves, also has two cams, the SOHC, would be cheaper to improve, but it's enhancements wouldn't be as improving as the DOHC. BUT I don't know the possibilities of the DOHC, and the SOHC. The SOHC is easier (for the mechanic to impove. I dunno maybe I am talking out my A** but it's probably cheaper to go with the SOHC...

Good luck, and Good forutune........
