I talked to a guy today that drive a 1.5L Accent...
I was wondering, since we like to take the 1.8 cams and drop those into the 2.0s, would a 1.5 give more or would that just be bad joo joo all around? Forgive me if this was a stupid question... but it was something I was thinking about on the way home today from work.

Ya, the 1.5 is a completely different setup. The cams will NOT swap.
Now what I would like to know is if there would be gains from the 1.6L Beta Intake or exhaust cam sold in the Tibs in parts of the world other than North America. That would be worth checking into.

Hes talking about the 1.6L beta cam, not the alpha (accent) 1.6L cam.
They only make the 1.6L beta in europe and a few other places.

ok, so assuming the 1.6L beta fits, would that prove to be benificial or not for us 2.0 or even the 1.8s out there? I guess this is an all in theory question anyway... but I was thinking about it, and didnt know if it would work out that way or not.
