Default Re: 222hp DOHC overrated?

Being in both a SOHC Auto (magna) and a DOHC manual (Magna) (Both the same engines/transmissions that these cars use in FWD) the DOHC absolutly RAPED my car in almost every aspect besides takeoff, other then that it just craps on the SOHC motor in every way.
I figured why would i spend my money on an engine which when modded would at best be the same as a stock DOHC? Thats why im doing the DOHC conversion .

I would rather have a better building block to start off with rather then spend money on a lesser engine.
As you said, do it once do it right.
