uhh, yeah they got torque , when compared to the other jap 4 cylinders everyone has. I belive that the 95-99 has 210tq, not sure about the 00-01 but I know that they have 222hp. The VQ engine has been rated as one of the top ten engines in America. I have a max and everyone tries me in their civics, integras, eclipses, and other imports then when i pull on them in a 4door they either get all mad or they keep trying to run me. I love it knowone expects it.
