Default -- WHAT CAMS SHOULD I CHOOSE?? --

Hey Everyone,

I have been trying to research some of the best cams for a more aggressive B16A. I would like to find the best bang for the buck, without losing
quality workmanship, and I have been unable to make a decision. So I would like some feed back from you guys, if at all possible, to help me make that decision. Here are some of the brands I have been looking at:

JDM HONDA ITR - Instake/Exhaust Cams (OEM0001) - $574.42
JDM HONDA CTR - Intake/Exhaust Cams (OEM0003) - $700.00
TODA - Intake/Exhaust Cams (TODA0002-SPEC B) - $980.00
SKUNK2 - Intake/Exhaust Cams (305-05-0145-STAGE 2) - $698.92
BLOX - Intake/Exhaust Cams (Tuner Series-TYPE B) - $577.15
Buddy Club - Intake/Exhaust Cams (SPEC IV) - $619.20
Crower - Intake/Exhaust Cams (63401-2-STAGE 1) - $499.00

What are you thoughts and experience with these particular brand products?

*I will also be upgrading the valve train along with the upgrade, so any suggestions on that are welcomed as well. Thank you for your time and have a
Happy New Year!

I'm very happy with my Skunk 2 turbo grind cams. Good quality, good price.

Don't just pick the most expensive thing on the page and say its the best. Especially when you don't know anything about any of the products. Leave.

How can anyone suggest any of the cams w/out knowing:

-what will the car be used for
-what compression
-what other mods, management, etc

Picking a cam based on it's name and price isn't practical IMO.

Personally, of the cams you've listed, I've used older ITR, newer ITR/CTR, and now Toda B's, and I've been extremely pleased with all of them, but I planned out my build up accordingly, especially now, with the more aggressive B's.
