Okay. I’m not sure which cams to get. I know I’m going with the Buddy Club brand, but as for which... idunno.

I’m looking to make roughly 200WHP with my completed set up, and I do want to make power all the way to 9K RPM. If that is the case, should I go with the Stage 3 or the Stage 4 cams? Id be willing to sacrifice low end power for more top end, since that’s where Ill be when I "need" the power anyway. The following is my current set-up with what I plan on adding before or when I add my cams.


2000 Civic Si
Uberdta'd P28 ECU
Wideband
B18C5 complete short block assembly
Reworked B16A2 head (PnP, velve job, Omnipower valve springs and Ti retainers)
JDM ITR header
ACT 12lb flywheel
Exedy full face clutch
ES motor mount inserts
AEM CAI
12" front slotted rotors, 11" rear slotted rotors
G-Stop SS brake lines
Motul BF600R fluid
Hawk HPS pads
16" gunmetal Rota C8 rims
Toyo Proxies T1-S (205-45-16)
SRR rear lower tie bar
KYB AGX adjustable shocks
Skunk Works (original, not Skunk2) springs w/ adjustable perch (GSR spring rates)
190lph fuel pump

soon to come:
Mugen head gasket for ~11.1:1 CR
free flow cat w/ aftermarket cat0back exhaust (undecided as to which yet)
Buddy Club Stage IV cams
AEBS intake manifold

stage 4's if you want power too 9k

 

For the compression ratio you are running, the spec 3's.

 

while stage 4s will run better with a higher CR, no doubt, so will stage 3s, or any other cam for that matter. its not a mater of CR after the magic ratio of 11:1 is reached or eclipsed. at that point it just becomes an issue of making additional power with said
cams.

BTW thank you for the link na200.
