is the skunk2 catback carb approved...i cant find out anywhere not even on their site...

whats better, aem cam sprockets, skunk2. need lightened cam sprockets

 

As far as cam sprockets are concerned I would go with Golden Eagle... the AEM units only have three lockdown bolts, whereas most other have five. More bolts is more protection from the sprockets slipping and screwing up.

 

thanks but what about the skunk2...does anyone know..thats all i really care about now

 

I dont trust skunk 2 but yes their exhaust is carb legal as for the cam sprockets go with HKS or fidanza

 

and you dont trust skunk becuase??

 

aem just came out with the 5 locking positions..how would that be if thats the only concern. even unorthdox has it.

 

their exhaust systems are bad. I have heard horror stories of makes for other model cars that had them crack.

 

<FONT COLOR="royalblue"> Skunk2 Cam Gear are some of the best in the marker ( for the money ). You can't beat a 6 bolt design, plus some of the bigger names don't make them for the H22. ( Toda ) Take advantage, one of the sponsors is selling the set for dirt cheap. </FONT>

yes listen to this guy. some of skunk2s stuff is fishy, i agree, but the cam gears seem just great. 6 bolt design rules. never heard of anyone having a problem with them.

 

i would look into ST Corsa gears, because they have a locking pin which prevents slipping alltogether. if u search the archives you can proly find some info on them

 

what is this about the exhuast cracking? so many people in this forum have said that skunk2 exhausts are great, performance and sound.

 

I have the Skunk2 MP Catback on my car, and I have nothing but complements. The sounds is awesome, and the look is great. Two Thumbs up from me.

 

Skunk2, RS*R, and Invidia are all the same exhaust. I have the Invidia on my 5th gen. and like it alot. Haven't had it long enough to comment on the cracking issue but this is the first time I heard that.

 

well im ordering it tonight for about 470 shipped. thanks for your help. hopefully ill notice a difference when i drop in my exhaust, intake, pulleys, cam gears.

 

skunk2 exhaust
skunk2 cam gears

 

will someone please tell my why not to get the skunk2...

 

I have a S2 MP Cat back, and i love it, sounds bad *** on my 4th Gen if you ask me.

also, when we put it on it seemed really well- made

 

comes with all the carb legal **** right?

So...are you going to explain why, or are we just supposed to take your opinion as truth?

 

sure I just havnt herd one good thing about skunk2 exhausts

And I have the skunk2 cam gears and think they are awesome and definatly worth the money spent

catback exhausts dont get a carb approval, or even if they do it doesnt matter, the exhaust has nothing to do with emissions, only sound, best bet is to save a lot of money and go with a custom one rather than name brand one, plus i don't think the skunk2 will pass sound tests even if it is carb approved

 

The Skunk2 cam gears that I have on my engine are great. They look nice too . In all seriousness though, I haven't been able to find a better aftermarket cam gear out there for the money.

As far as their exhausts, I can't comment on that, but I have a load of Skunk2 stuff on my car at the moment (muffler, intake manifold, cams, cam gears, valves, retainers, valve springs, etc.) since I love their stuff and thus far, I have had no problems with anything breaking.

I might be lucky, but I think that Skunk2 makes a lot better stuff than most people give them credit for. I know that a lot of Honda tuners that I know in my area swear by the stuff. Call me a fanboy if you want, but that's just my .02.

 

Well, I put together a custom exhaust, and its definately not cheaper than the 500 i can the skunk2 for. I'm going to order the skunk2 and the cam gears now so we'll have to see how it turns out. Plus skunk2 seems to be dominant exhausts of a lot of prelude owners. whatev thanks

 

dont get me wrong I am not bad mouthing skunk2. I just dont hear anything good about the exhaust. Everything else seems aight
