id honestly say itr or ctr cams, but an aftermarket spring/retainer. ive heard of high boost pushing the valve keepers through the retainers.

i had stock b16 cams and noticed a difference when i put the gsr's in. the itrs should be even better

ITR or CTR camshafts seem to work great. I can't say for sure who makes the best springs and retainers. I personally use Super Tech but I highly recommend Ferrea as well. If you do end up going with an aftermarket springs and retainers be sure to also purchase recommended keepers as well. I know Ferrea sells recommended keepers with their valve train
