Which Delta Camshaft is best for me???
hey guys, i have a 89 crx si with a freshly rebuilt a6 with I/H/E. I want a little more power so i was naturally looking at a cam and i saw Delta's website. I know that they sell two different grinds, the 260 and 272. My question is which is better for me? When i install this camshaft i want to notice a big difference in the powerband, but i would like a cam that doesn't idle like a race cam and doesn't make the car stall at a stoplight. Which cam do you think would be better for me???
oh, BTW i'm getting a chipped ecu from HyperDuck Tuning in a day or so if that matters

Re: Which Delta Camshaft is best for me??? (Red_Si)
so far the 260 seems to be more of a street cam where the 272 seems more of a race topend power cam. i dont know if you will notive a big difference with the 260 cause i was driving my 87 crx dx around all winter while i did the work. so i cant compare a before and after. all i know is that after the 87...my 90 si felt like a freakin rocket! but now that ive been driving it a few weeks im more used to it.
the 272 will probably make more peak power but thats not all that helpful on the street when you shift and drop out of the powerband.
ask for more replies from people with the 260 and 272 here - https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=419988
