It's all about the tradeoff
dinomite. If you want strong low end, don't do too much in the way of engine mods. Port the E7's, HO cam, intake. You'll pick up some good power, and your car will retain it's low end grunt as long as you keep the exhuast matched to that combo. If you are putting in aftermarket heads, B cam, 1.7's, and an intake, you want the exhaust to flow better so your new engine can really pull where it's supposed to, higher in the rpms. It shouldn't hurt your low end with the aforementioned combo, because if you are matched, you'll have some much lower than factory gears in it. The gear's torque multiplication should way offset the loss of torque from the exhaust. Of course the actual cam, and heads may not be built for the low rpms either, but really, in that kind of combo your car should never see 2500rpms in a race.
