Default ITR/GSR cam question for Turbo GSR....

I have a turboed GSR motor and I'm thinking about putting in a 00-01 ITR cam.


#1 -- How much hp difference could I expect to gain over my stock GSR cams?

#2 -- Would I need to replace both GSR cams with 00-01 ITR cams or do I only need to replace
just the GSR intake cam with the ITR intake cam??


Your input would be appreciated.

Thanks!!

you could do just the intake cam, how much hp u would make depends on your setup. u would want to get it tuned for the new cams, or else it wont help much

I don't have the link but boosted-hybrid I think it was showed dyno charts with gains from swaping gsr to itr/ctr cams. I would swap both since you can pickup a used set for $250-300. Keep in mind people have made great power with gsr cams but if you plan on reving high and are look for peak hp then you definantly want to look into them.

Yeah, I was looking for a pair of 00-01 ITR cams and came across a brand new pair of 00 CTR cams instead.

Seperately, I called an Acura dealership today re: the ITR exhaust cam and GSR exhaust cam and they told me that they were different. I was thinking about getting only the ITR intake cam but if I were to get the ITR cams I think it would have been better for me to just get both.

itr cams give you more power but you gotta tune to get it out.

i just moved to some itr cams, i was using GSR before....

Don't get me wrong the gsr were great but im just looking for more

like everyone else said, youll need a tune for the power to come out also look into upgraded springs/retainers if ur gonna rev real high

Default Got'em

I went ahead and bought a brand new pair of CTR cams. Good price too. Still in the package.
