Well, VE's really die off hardcore on stock cams much north of the stock limit, but I can totally understand if upgraded valvetrain.
The NX initially went to 8200 IIRC with the DE and S5's. We never got a chance to really play with the rev limit on the dyno before he was sold on going vvl hehe.
WITH that said however, the VVL even with the same header and intake made better power all around and much more torque. As mucdh as I love a nice DE, the VVL is bar none the N/A 2.0 choice.

Let's not forget that the "Street RWD" record at buttonwillow is held by the Evasive S2K, not any z chasis. Personally I would rather own the z then the s2k, but I cannot disrespect the little Honda's capabilities.

I can totally agree to this, even with equal drivers. I too would take a Z before an S any day of the week, but when it comes to a HPDE type car, the S is 90% of the time the better car.
