And cams wont determine detonation. Your tune will. If you want the lesslikelyhood of detonation keep the stock cams.

I used 440cc injectors on my old b16 along with ITR cams. Tuned it through an s300. Made 234whp and 192tq. Was fun as Hell.

Those are some very good numbers for a b16.

^^^
Yea.. almost too good


OP: one often mistake is over-camming the engine.. Some kids think the bigger the cams, the more power. Which we all know isnt the case. Some ITR cams will wake it up.. but first you need to ditch the restrictive stock exhaust if your trying to make some power.

And try not to use crome.. yea its free, but still plagued with bugs.

I think he was trying to say that switching to a more aggressive cam will not cause detonation on its own, but a bad tune will.

Those cams won't affect your tune as much as a bigger set of cams and should be easy to work with. My ctr intake cam tunes like a gsr cam.

You should be apologizing for "bumping" such an old pointless thread.
