Default The SOHC is underestimated, is it worth the hook up

I was getting ready to do a LS VTEC turbo setup on my ex, when i just started to think of how much money i could save if i stick to the y8.
i have never really had a problem with single cams but i wanted to do a DOHC swap. now i have changed my mind and want to stick with the single cam and turbo that shit. does anyone know of any fast single cams out there???

(by the way, i still have the SI head, LS block and the Eagle rods)

Fast? No. Quick? Yes it's possible with a bit of work
