what cams would you guys recommend for my set up.
B18b block
ITR Pistons
GSR head
Blox I.M.
AEM cold air
Jdm 4-1 w/ 2.5 all the way back

I believe my comp. is around 11:1 (correct me if i'm wrong) witch isn't crazy high. Any advise appreciated, please share experiences with similar setups if you got em... Thanks

 

stage 2 cams

 

"Stage 2" what?? Explain to me the reasoning behind your recommendation please.

 

not to be a dick, but yeah... stage 2 what.


N-E-way

i was thinking of the the buddy club 4's

 

Pro1's.

 

toda A

 

have you guys had experience with these cams. I don't want to just go by a HT popularity contest, no offense

 

I've had experience with every toda cam except the D....haha

Great company, great cams, make great power.

But there are other cams out there making great power for less....rocket makes great cams, crower makes great cams...

are you doing any future modifications anytime soon? how much power do you ultimately wanna make? theres alot to consider

 

would like to hit 200, this is my DD so nothing crazy, I will make further mods as needed to hit my mark, but once I hit it my next project begins(LS-VT... not sure what chassis)

I have heard good and bad about toda, you say you have had experience with the A's, how would you say they stack up against the BC4's

THANK GOD. You are the only "newer' person that I've seen say that, what a relief. Naw we built a ls/vtec(rip) for my roomate using the Pro1's and they worked very very well. When you combine the Pro1 with the 89 crank, you have gobbs of midrange power. If you wanted to rev higher or wanted more of a drag race cam, I would suggest the M22.

 

LOL, thanks for the compliment clean rice. i dont want to rev crazy high, i just want to rev as high as i need to to get to peak power, you know,im not the kinda honda guy that says "I want to rev to 15(for no apparent reason)what makes power that high" I would like to keep it to around 8k, how high up would you say the pro1's made the power on your room mates LSV

 

if you wanna make 200whp, i say run Toda B's or a simliar cam. with a good header and exhaust you should be able to come dam close

 

have you used the todas? where do they make the power?

 

On his particular motor I would say they peaked at 7,800-8k. It's pretty typical to see the Pro1's peak at 8, shift at 8,500.

 

have a set of brand new pro1 s for sale still in box if ur interrested decided to go with bigger cam ,they have never been used pm me if interrested

I have always used nothing but Toda, on my car they actually made power till 8700...and I made 192 with the B's...but if I had a better header at the time woulda prolly been 200whp.

 

this might be a dumb question but what is the next step up from the pro1's, and how extreme are those cams? are they any good for a dd?

honestly man, as long as you get a good tuner who knows what hes doing, anything is streetable.

I've been daily driving my R for years now with 200whp Toda C cams, 12:1 compression. Drives fine.

Now I will be running ITB's...and will drive it a whole lot...as long as you have a good tuner and don't mind loudness your good bro. Just make sure you build it right the first time...don't spare expenses

 

so what comp. would you say i need to run pro2's or toda b's. I have 11:1(i believe) is that enough?

sorry to keep buggin guys but i dont want to just rush out and buy something and end up having something that doesnt work that great for me.

 

u can run toda B's with that....but did you ever think about doing block work? and I believe with certain head gaskets you can raise compression as well.....someone confirm this? I haven't researched this yet.

 

hey tostie bud wht comp r u running n wats ur setup?

 

what do you mean by block work? i have it balanced with ITR pistons and rod bolts, you mean rods? and yeah with a thinner head gaskets you can raise compression, but if its not needed i would like not to
