I talked with Jeff about modding my type r, (really nice guy), he told me that getting skunk2 cams, skunk2 gears, custom ported JG Edlebrock Headers, and a high flow cat would help me run high 13's on slicks if im correct. Anybody have this similar setup, what 1/4 mile times do you guys hit, how do you like the setup.

Thanx

 

You mean high 12's, right? That sounds like too many mods to hit high 13's... epecially with slicks. Some good drivers are able to get stock ITR into low 14's with only some minor mods (I/H/E, gutted interior).

 

i forgot to mention that he said the track in palmdale, CA. The elevation on that track is horrible.

 

I think with some tuning you could hit mid 13's on slicks with that setup..usually it takes some decent whp to hit 12's..like 210+

 

anybody?

 

13`s maybe
12`s no

you should friend of mine on a type R running jun 3(which skunk cams are almost very similar specs) ran 14.1 on slicks at pamdale .
just running the cams , you should near that also remember some tunning

I have skunk stage 1 cams and I run mid 13's on slicks @ 100 mph with the stock clutch. I ran high 13's @ 98 mph with R cams. In other words, you can run high 13's with slicks & I,H,E.

how much more power do the Jun 3's have than skun2's

 

If your gonna upgrade your cams, your going with some HC pistons right?

 

he didnt say anything about changing pistons

 

with type r pistons I got over 190 to the wheels. Glad to see there are more people receptive to Skunk now.

 

 

I've got the stage2 skunk cams. Just got it dynoed at IB 2 weeks ago. I made 191 hp corrected on it. Not bad eh...

 

the difference is not by much , maybe like 2-3 if that

 

and that would be where ?
friend of mine ran 13.6 with slicks at pomona ona fully body gsr running a b16 head stock no p&p b16 pistons and CTR and ITR cams

 

(jonnybravo)

what other mods do you have except for cams.

 

what type of motor ? if is not the same !

 

What do you mean where? Capitol Raceway in Maryland.

13.6 on a fully body gsr. what the hell is that supposed to mean? We all have bodies on our cars. fyi the stage 1 cams from skunk have the same lift maybe a little moreas a type r but have more duration. more compression with a less aggressive cam can yield the same results as lower compression car with beefier cams.

 

Thank you. Same thing I was thinking.

 

I/H/E Skunk2 stage 2 cams, Skunk2 cam gears, 310 injectors, hondata 2 and that's all folks!

 

damn sorry for not being clear dont get all defensive .
went i ment full body means that with full interior ,and i know i wasnt thinking since sometimes i post during my breaks and do not have much time

the reason i ask , cause pamdale( and he was refering running 13 at that track )
is a sorry track and also is high in altitude not sea level .so the times there would be slower then compare to a sea level track , like for example pomona or i think bakersfield ( i think ) running 14.0-14.2 at pamdale would be 13's .but he wants to run 13's which if he hits high 13's would be consider low or mids .
heres another example ericks racing fastes time at pamdale is 11.0 flat and 11.1
where in another track would be 10's . hope that i explain my self

 

I see. I believe both MIR and Capitol are sea level or damn close. Capitol looks like its downhill though.
