i believe that the CTR intake cam is more agressive than the ITR intake. but the exhaust cams are the same. correct me if i am wrong?

ctr's and itr's would put out the same power on certain b18c engines
but the ctr's would put more on the b16's something about its piston speeds.

Vtec pistons have bigger valve reliefs, so the will accomidate higher lift cams. You will be fine mike.

The only difference between ITR and CTR cams is 3 degrees duration on the intake cam.
