I'm getting ready to put the car down and begin the rebuild process.

I've done some searching and didn't find a whole lot on cam suggestions. A lot of people are suggesting using the stock ITR cams, but how much HP are they good for?

I know I'd need a cam profile with short duration and high lift. I see Crower has an application, but all I hear is about how their cams break and destroy motors.

Suggestions from the darkside?

 

do yourself a big favor and leave the stockers in.

 

That's what Ive been reading... I guess that should do.
Any idea when the stockers become the bottleneck?

I'd guess in the 450-500 whp range that a change of cams might make a difference.
You really should check with a few notable turbo shops for their professional opinions.

leave the stock cams.. whats your hp goal?

 

Looking to get around 420-450 on 93 and 500+ on race

 

personally i'd stick with oem cams.. but heres a link to 600+ whp on itr cams.. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1069197.. from what i read gsr can provide for more midrange, at that much hp cams can make a difference, then again, do you care if you make 30 less hp or have to run extra psi of boost to compensate?

 

Rocket Motorsports M21X cams/valvetrain.

Here they are in a 2.0 at 19psi, clutch slipping badly, destroyed itself after this run.

Save the money, you can spend it better elsewhere. Stock GSR/ITR cams are good turbo cams. (as already mentioned)

if thats what your looking to make power wise then you'll be fine with stock cams. im still running them hp numbers are in my sig and i didnt get a race gas tune yet.

My turbo motor was using GSR cams, going with at least an ITR intake this time around w/cam gear tuning.

 

Thanks for the info guys...

It cleared up a lot of thoughts about my build.

 

Cortney Green (uglyasscivic h-t name) made a little over 800whp on his stock GSR cams I do believe and this is in a street car. Also I have seen over 600whp with stock ITR cams. Personally I would leave the stock cams in there myself cant get much better than that it seems when going turbo on the b series engines.

"This time around?" And here I thought you were going to leave 151 basically "stock".
