Does anyone make a performance cam for the 1.5L SOHC DX engine?

And, can an adjustable cam gear really enhance engine performance?

 

Crane makes a good cam for it.....and yes, cam gears help, as long as they are tuned to the right specs for your car.

 

yea dont do it...waste of money...for that particular motor that is...

 

Gude = regrinds, and crap .....

Stick to Crane. Pricey, but worth it from what I've heard.

 

Just use a stock CRX Si cam and use a camgear to offset the 1/2 tooth difference.

I made 135 hp with stock parts + I/H/E

 

You are litterally wasting your time by squirting juce out of the 1.5, it's an economical engine, if you want something, change intake manifold for MPFI first then a goog head work will be fine, port and polish, then get Crane Cam, and spring, and retainer, if you can afford it go with a 3 angle valve jobs!! but money is all what make us left behind no?

 

yeah gude sucks if ya want details on why i think so msg me

 

Dear DOHCVTEC16:

Thanks.

Dear Mista Bone:

Exactly which CRX Si (Year?) would be the source for the cam you suggest?

And, do you think it would be prudent to seek a used CRX Si cam or just purchase new?

Thanks,

Dear kranked91dx:

Can you suggest some sources for the MPFI you suggest for my engine?

Thanks,

OldGeezer

 

88 CRX Si will require no cam gear
89-91 will require cam gear.
89-91 cams were ground with a different keyway location on the cam. It makes the 1/2 tooth off when installed in a 1.5L block/head setup.

I would buy a used cam for about $25 that had NOT be reground.

About Gude......
They will regrind you a cam (wears out quickly) and then when you send yours back as a core they will reject it and want you to pay shipping if you want it back.
Your cam will then be ground and sent to the next sucker.
