ok so I've ordered my skunk 2 stage 2 cams for my R. The rest of the engine is stock. I'm debating gettin the cam gears too. Is this a must? How mcuh more power will I realistically get out of advancing or retarding the time. I just don't want to spend more money than I have to.

thx fellas

 

anyone?

 

get on a dyno and find out. Toooo many variables in this question, and don't try to narrow it down or ask for an estimate. Bring your car to a shop that has a qualified tuner and proper equipment and then let us know. (if you want)

 

thanks rob. will do

 

I agree with what was said above. Take it to a tuner and let us know.

Just to give you a little incentive, the most I have seen anyone get from advancing the timing on a stock block ITR was 10whp and 7 ft/lbs. Keep in mind that he had engine management. Hondata is a must with skst2 cams. Also consider some RC310 injectors.

 

ya, I've been told my stock fuel system won't cut it. Do I need a fuel pressure reg and and a fuel rail as well or can I just get away with a better pump and better injectors?

o and the guy who i'm buying off is offering me some sk2 retainers and dual vavle springs. Are these that much better than stock? I suppose I might be able to rev a litte higher with better srpings.

 

Upgraded valve train is a MUST with the skunk2 Stage 2 cams.

Get the valve train he is offering.

What header are you going to run with your setup?

 

4-1 DC Sports 2.25 collecter. I know, I know shoulda got the JDM 2.5.

What about my fuel system?

 

Get the FPR, Fuel pump and as recommended upgrade the injectors 310's

 

and chip it as previous mentioned to remap the fuel system ...

anything else?
