Default What Cams are the best?

So i was wondering What all you Honda+Acura nuts thought were the best?
Skunk 2, Buddy Club, Obx, and also which do you think is best for the money? Try to also keep in mind that this is a Street car. I would like a smooth idle, but i want to be able to feel the power. i have some mods, but i could never really feel a difference.

Thanks,
CaminSi

Oh yeah i Gotta B series.

too many variables to give you a certain brand/type.

most all aftermarket cams are good in one way or another...

i agree, just go with what you feel is worth your money. also do some research on all the cams. what will the cams be used for? autocross, drag, etc....

also depends on what motor and compression you are running.

if you have stock compression vtec motor, s2s1's or some CTR/ITR cams will be good.

just the CTR/ITR intake cam alone is a good bang for your buck cam.

i have one for sale also

the real questions is this gonna be a daily driven car or not?? This will help in picking what stage cam to get and where peak and mig range horse will come in.
If its a daily driven car get some buddy clubs low maintenance and good midrange through their cam line. If its a race car get some Skunk pro series stuff...make good power all around, and respond nice to higher compression and so on...

I had just a CTR intake cam and it was so not worth the money IMO. I got rid of them and I'm going to run BC Spec3+ soon. Hopefully a bigger butt dyno improvement compared to the CTR

with out supplying more fuel you will never feel a jump thing by swaping cams. upgrade ur pressure regulator and injectors before doing so. just a suggestion
