Default CTR Cam Shafts and Valvetrain for my gsr - good deal?

I was just browsing ebay and found this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...%3AIT . The guy has an excellent feedback rating so I am not doubting his integrity, but just wanted to see if this was a good deal that i should go for by asking you guys. If it helps, I have a eg with a pretty much stock b18c-gsr swap. All mods are in my sig. Thanks for your feedback in advance!

so far i havent done too much research in the archives of what my potential is with this set up, but what should I expect to be able to rev up to with it? if you dont have an answer thats fine bc i still have a lot of searching through the archives. thanks

anyone else have any feedback about this set up? i really just want to know if its a good deal and if its something i should go for. thanks

CTR valvetrain is good only for all motor application,
do you plan on turbo?? if yes, ctr valvetrain is not good enough for boost.

n/a all the way. cant beat the reliablity and that bad *** sound of an all motor set up . Also, will my skunk2 ecu work well with this set up?
