Default SKUNK 2 CAMS yayyy

Hey HT, i was just wondering if i should purchase skunk2 stage 1 cams for my b16a2 with intake and exhaust, just curious if its worth it or not.

and also, as of right now being stock, will it be faster if i shift at 8k rpm, which is the redline begining, or 8200 rpm where the cutoff is?

What do you consider "worth it"? If you install them correctly and then have your car tuned on a dyno they'll certainly give you a significant amount of power (as much as 10% I'd imagine). If you just slap them in and cross your fingers, though, it will be nothing but a gouge out of your wallet.

Nothing comes cheap in this game. Save your money for boost or cams that will REALLY wake that motor up. Baby steps don't work in a land where most of us deal with bills on a monthly basis

I agree, just search around. You'll find reviews/opinions on all sorts of things.
