Ok, so i finally got enough money and x-mas is coming up so i figured I would buy the RRR a nice little gift. Well, I was thinking something along the lines of Skunk2 Stg. 2's with Portflow inner valvesprings along with Portflow retainers. What do you guys think of this setup? What kind of horsepower should I expect? Finally, will it be ok for daily driving? Thanks!!!

I have searched I just wanted to make sure it would work well. Also, I have a JDM ITR 4-1, J's intake, and T1R catback. Thanks for any help.
skunk2 2's will produce little to no hp over stock or stage I's if on stock compression. The springs should be fine, although I personally like to use the same company throughout the head so that all the tolerances,ect are all correct and the parts are made to work with each other. If you plan on running these cams, you'll need to mill your head and/or run a thinner head gasket. You will also need hondata, b/c you'll need to be around 11:8:1 compression to maximize the power from those cams (skunk2 recommendations). Good luck, and if you had searched, you would have run across this info already.
Treat yourself nice this X-mas, and get yourself some Portflow:
