Re: (J-Brooks)
i've seen GSR cams make 500whp, but the CTR cams have alot of overlap, they may give some power to 300whp cars, but they also have alot of overlap, so i guess if you throw on some cam gears then you are good to go. But i wouldn't recommend CTR cams to a normal 250-300whp car, GSRs will pull hard to 8800rpms all day long.

Re: (seen4ever)
CTRs will make more power on the same setup.
If you have no cams yet, then get type r for sure.
If you have GSR already, then your power goals should dictate whether or not you want/need to upgrade them.

thats the problem though with H-t right now. Everything has been covered. Im just banking that once K-series come down in price a whole new section of topics and research begins like H-t used to be.

What kind of manifold?
If it's a log... with high backpressure... go with a shorter-duration higher-lift. Otherwise if it's tubular, up the duration because it will run at a lower TIP so you will get less reversion and make more power.
