Default skunk 2 stage 2 on b18c

Anyone run the entire skunk valve train and stage 2 cams, if so what do you think? I so far am not impressed but i havent broke them in or really got on it too bad and also havent tuned vafc yet, but wow lost all low end. I suppose i need to get some pistons thinking about civic type r or del sol. I know that the greatest power produced is at 8k but i thought it would still create somthing a 6k but hay i'm probably just a dumbass...

so basically what you're saying is that you haven't yet broken them in yet, you haven't dyno tuned them and you haven't really pushed the car hard with the cams in... but you're giving them a bad wrap?
hehehe give them some time man... you've got a wicked drag set up there, you had to expect to lose some low end...

Give us a review when you break them in and tune them! Maybe you could post up dyno plots! Im interested in buying these but I would like to see what they do on a gsr motor.

I think what he meant to say is that the valvesprings have not yet softened up.
