Default what kinda cams do you guys use?

I'm thinking of doing skunk2 stage 2 or toda spec B. Right now i have the stage 2's and this guy says he'll do a straight up trade for it. What do you guys think i should do?

And mods, please don't delete this. I don't see anything wrong with it. And if there is something wrong, IM me and tell me whats up.

Yeah i know that the toda B's are valued higher, but in terms of power, which do you think has more potential? And is it ok to run porftlow inners/itr outers with the toda cams? The toda's have huge primaries...

IDLE is better with gears at 0,0 or even 0, -2. just play with the IDLE screw and you will be fine

...Lean out at 1k on the part throttle map by -30 or so on the vafc and play with the throttle screw = rock solid idle.

cams without tuning = + + +

cams without tunning means. you think it feels fast by the but dyno. but will be suprized when you actually dyno.

Smoth power feels slower than untunned power IMHO. my car feels slower now at 190's than it did in the 170's.

you minds a bitch and loves to play tricks

Smooth idle = 0,0 cam gears and V-AFC magic. F the idle screw.

Midrange whp ownz j00. Huge non-VTEC lobes are your friend

Why the plain face ( )? Are toda cams billet? Someone told me before that the reason why the original skunk2 cams wore out the rocker arms was because they were billet. That person was wrong right?

Because (no offense here), this topic has been beaten to death. Twice. Research (if the search function is working again yet) and draw your own conclusions.

Alright, i just got my Spec Bs today. The cams look like they are in mint condition, except on the exhaust cam on one of the primary lobes, at the very very edge of it, there is a tiny tiny (and i mean very small) chip on the edge. Is there anything i should worry about?
