Sorry to but in here, but this has gotten pretty popular!
So, let's say, My 95 Accord, versus a 1995 Mazda 626 V6! (The 626 has many asthetic mods, but not any engine mods. Lets also add that it isn't in the best condition) That might actually be a race someday.

Hehe, I'm not sure. I've heard it, it doesn't sound that healthy. Sounds worse than my Inline 4. It has less miles, but according to the guy's dad, most of them were pretty hard miles.
You're telling me VTEC can't keep up with a bigger engine?

I don't know. I think under absolutly normal, fresh-off-the-factory-floor, then the I4 would get smoked by the V6, or it would at least be a close one, because of the VTEC, and if you've ever felt it kick, you know it makes a difference.
But, in the case put forth, the V6 is probably in worse shape than the I4 in My car.
