Default itr and ctr cams

i have heard that the ctr cams are the same as the itr but the itr intake is like 1 or 2 deg different...i guess my question is would it be worth it ( i assume itr would be more expensive) for the minor difference or would it be noticable?

The CTR Cams are almost the same as the ITR, the only difference would be the 3 degrees difference on the intake side which increases the air flow in the CTR Cams. The Exhaust cams on the CTR is the same as the ITR's though

are you saying that CTR cams would actually be better?

Unless you have parts that will support and work in conjunction with the cams, neither would be better. I'm not saying that these cams are radically different from stock B16 or GSR cams, but they will give you better gains if you can help them with improving the efficiency of the airflow through the motor. If you have a stock motor, I wouldn't expect too big of a gain in HP to the wheels with just the cams alone.

if your doing a big build forget the oem cams and go with aftermarket ones.
