ips I beleive makes cams for k-series motors and have shown the most power than any oher cam on the market for a k-series. Last I heard. I could be thinking of another company though.

TODA cams work with TODA valves, springs and cam gears. You need all the suff for it to work well.

The spec C's require all the additional items and they make a bit of HP but they're not even as aggressive as the Brian Crower Stage 2's.

I recently read somewhere that Hytech also makes cams, but I don't know much about them. I did a quick search on their website and didn't find them, so I'm not 100% sure about that info. Hopefully soon there will be some dynos and data on the Brian Crower cams that just came out.

In 3 years with the s2000 I have learned that Hytech makes a bunch of performance parts for the s2000 but non of them are available for purchase and they are all still under R/D. Their supposed to have this great n/a header and exhaust too.
