Well i bought some Skunk 2 stage 1 cams from jhpusa.com for 550 shipped.
I was about to buy the ctr cams but the guy on the phone said due to the lack of intrest on the skunk 2 stage 1 cams price has been dropped dramatically on them. I just cant wait to get them dyno'ed. Thanks for all the help everyone.

Where did you hear that crap from?

All it takes is a trip to their site.

These camshaft blanks are cast from the same foundries used by auto manufacturers such as Toyota, Nissan, Honda, and Mitsubishi, and utilize the latest in Japanese chill-casting technology. Skunk2 Racing camshafts are ground to exact specification using CNC cam grinding machines and are subjected to hours of performance and durability testing.

hmm.....well there is a cam guide up top that I posted, might be a little outdated.

I would consider first what is your priority.......price/reliability/power.


I have always been a fan of the oe honda lineup for cams just don't expect turbo like power

i'm not going to search around for others contradicting themselves. like i stated before, make sure you know what you're talking about before you post it. this is not the first time. and even if price is the ultimate decision factor, you were still way off.

sorry for going off topic and turning this thread to shit

thank god someone finally said it,

god i hate this board. he wants something not too fancy for a cheap price. either way, itr cams are fairly decent. he obviously doesn't care about making the most hp. and ITR cams would still give him a fucking gain. why is this still going on?

for refernce, here is the link to the skunk2 site where revolution8k got his price for those stage 1 B-series Skunk2 cams:

id honestly say just get the ITR ones from someone cheap and see how your car performs with them.
