I'm thinking about purchasing a pair of skunk2 stage2 cams with the upgraded valvetrain (must do). what i want to know is will it yield any good power???.
my car is a 94 b18c1 acura integra gs-r
mods:
: AEm short ram intake
:skunk2 intake manifold
:TEst pipe, removed muffler
: skunk2 p28 ecu vtec4800-redline9000
:LS transmission(will be gone soon for a gs-r tranny)
:fluidyne radiator
:clutchmasters stage 3 clutch.
:removed A/C
;REmoved power steering.
:ground control cloilovers

if it matters "new internals".
ANY HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED

 

or should i go with some other cams for some reason??? PROS, CONS?????

 

bump

 

???????????????

 

maybe im wrong but im pretty confident that intake manifold isnt helping with out those cams. and your catless exhaust probably just smells. i dont know, do you drive it everyday?

 

Getting some ctr/itr pistons or some higher compression aftermarkets with those stage2 cams would probably be pretty good.

I'm sure you would yield more then you have with the cams but a bump up for compression should be even better.

 

i dont drive it everyday. jsut sometimes, i drive a ford escort beater lol

 

yea i will buy some other pistons as soon as i get more money. but for right now i want to know if it is okay to drive it with jsut those and with the mods i have.

 

anyone??

 

If it's all tuned and such, it should be good to go before you get any better pistons.

 

you will need a header, 4-1 preferably to maximize the cam output no matter which upgrade you get

 

which headers do you recommend??

 

i went with a jdm 4-1 , but you will also have to get a 2.5" collector gasket and flange if you want it to fit right along with a new test pipe or hi-flo cat, i went with the hi-flo cat, im satisfied with the power

 

A header would compliment the setup well, but as far as cams I'd go with something a little more modest. Buddy Club 3+ maybe.

 

i looked into the buddy clubs too but most people said that skunk2 are way better.

and i will definetly look into getting a header.
