Default Skunk Stage2 Cams...very nice

Saw an LSVTEC go from 160HP to 183HP on the dyno after installing Skunk Stage2s. I think that is very impressive.

I believe the only mods he had were i/h/e and the skunk cams.

No, I was there....the cams were dropped in and the car went on the dyno and immediately gained 23hp. Why would I be advertising? I'm just sharing something I saw at the shop I go to. Thought maybe people were curious about the new skunk cams.

i wonder how much of a difference the idle is affected. heard from a distributor of skunk that these stage 2's are more radical of a cam than jun stage 3's...i wonder!!!

nice gain too, i believe it, but i would also like to see some dyno graphs.

Specs:
Skunk2-Stage II...INTAKE lift=12.07mm...duration= 265 @ 1mm
EXHAUST lift=11.6mm.....duration= 256 @ 1mm

Jun Type 3...INTAKE lift=12.0mm....duration= 265.3 @ 1mm
EXHAUST lift=11.5mm....duration= 265.3 @ 1mm


These specs don't tell the whole story, but they are a good basis for comparison.
I found these specs here:http://www.team-integra.net/sections...p?ArticleID=51

Sorry for the late post. I didn't ask the guy if he also got valvesprings so sorry I do not know.

I have a video of the dyno run....but don't have anywhere to post it. I'd be happy to send it to someone thru email or AIM...and if they can post it up for everyone.
