Default Are Jun cams the best N/A cams for the H22?

I'm looking at spending my tax return on some car upgrades and I was thinking along the lines of new cams+header+tuning. Any suggestions?

unless your getting close to 3k in your tax return you might want to rethink the cams, header and tuning. Jun cam package (valve springs and retainers) are about 1400, someone will probably correct me on that. A good header 800-1000 and tuning is going to be expensive not quite 1k for it but its still pricey if you want a good tune.

but to answer you question yes Jun cams are good all motor cams.

whats your current motor set up? I have JUN cams, gears, springs and retainers and i LOVE them. But its the best cam for my N/A setup.... might not be whats best for yours.
JUNs are a very agressive cam. You need to have a hi comp motor in order for them to be worth anything.
JUN cams and valvetrain are going to set you back a good amount. Right now the exhaust cam itself is is damn near impossible to find, unless its used.

that exactly what i was going to say, if you serious about making n/a power then it best to get a custom cam made for your setup. though if it were me and i was looking at a generic cam i think crower stage 3s are more agressive than the juns, correct me if im wrong. I think jun stuff is over priced.

Get webcamshafts custom made to Jun spec. Go with supertech valvetrain.

my boy has crower valve train and cams in his all motor h22 and i think that they are the best you can go. every one i know that when jun in their h22 has taken them out. but motor tunning is a preference and every one dissagress, do your home work and make your decision that way. good luck

I wouldn't doubt JUN could get the car to 300whp, but the car in its current condition is nowhere near that.

The reason to get Jun is for its performance and reliability. Ive heard too many stories about crower cams being snapped over time.

^^ i think matt posted the vtec lobs, idle lobs are probably very mild, or mild enough for a decent idle

put your stories to bed, crower has long since corrected that and have been using a different core. see the offical prelude cam thread.

The specs are nice but there isn't a standard measurement system for cams. In other words you can't compare specs of cams from different mfg.

The JUN motor put down 270 whp i believe it was.

Just the set of super JUN pistons is 1200 bucks if you can get them. Any agressive cam with show better numbers with high compression. Eaither way you cut it, stage 3 cams ( just cams) are going to run in the 1K + range. Dont even think about running some stage 3 cams on stock valvetrain and a VAFC. Gonna need the whole package. Do it right the first time or dont even bother.
