ok i can get a set of 98 ITR cams with jg cam gears for cheap. my questions is if i was to put that in my b16a3 with just I/H/E would i need to tune it or would it still run ok with stock p30 ecu (by not harming my motor). i know that by tuning it, it would make the cams run at it's full potential but i dont have money to get a tune for now.

tuning is your best friend when gaining power

Then why do you want to mod the motor? You will have better results from just tuning the car as is, then putting in the cams. As far as money spent goes.

thats because i can get the itr cams for cheap. if i dont keep it i can resell it for more. just want a lil more high end thats all.

yes it will run.
but you will not see the true power gains with out a tune,

^^^ you drive like a granny but you want more power up top????

I ran ctr cams in my b16 and gsr without tune. It runs just fine. But you can gain more from tuning than dropping them in. I just don't have money for tuning. It just like having a ctr or itr motor running on stock ecu.
