Default Build the B16A

so far goals are 7psi, higher redline, skunk2 valve springs retainers, cam, arp head studs...

what would be the best cams to use and what would be a decent redline or rpm range.

it will all be tuned on hondata s300 by church. B16A LSD tranny. stock bottom end.

Make sure you have valve springs too . We couldn't really tell you what your new redline would be even when you pick a some cams. It needs to be dyno'd to see where your power band, ect. is. Then set your rev-limiter in s300 according to the dyno.

I would say ITR cams would be fine.... The guys here in Tampa at LHT performance have supertech valve train with the ITR cams on their 647 whp integra.... Also look into a Hondata ecu like the other guy said... Look in last months Turbo mag, they are on the cover...

I'm not sure if anyone else around here has read or heard about Skunk2's valve train failing before, but as of late, I've read a lot on that. I might suggest PortFlow or Ferrea. Either way, I wish you the best of luck on your build.

Just the valve train, from what I know. The cams seem to be doing very well. That is why I chose their turbo cams to run in my set up. Plus, they meet the needs of my build.
