no bad experiences yet. you just sacrifice idle and so forth. But if you don't up your compression or any other mods to your car then don't get them. what kind of setup are you thinking of running?? goals??

if i decide to run these cams i plan on getting new valves,springs and retainers. other than that no other mods. also will tightening the throttle cable help the car idle better. i know it will probably kill my gas though.

i got a set with skunk 2 springs, retainers and cam gears. i didn't get to tune it yet but i really felt a difference. it's required to get higher compression pistons. right now i'm going to put in some p30s in my gsr and get it tune and see how it is. also i read on the skunk 2 website, they said not to use oversized valves with the cams and don't know why. maybe someone else can answer that.
