i have a 99 civic si, and i have itr valvetrain for it right now to upgrade the cams. I know i can run skunk2 stage 1 cams with that setup, but... will i be able to run skunk2 proseries stage 1 cams with it??? answers asap greatly appreciated! thanks!

 

NO.

 

Their are a lot of good valve trains on market rite now, BUT skunk2 would suggest their PRO SERIES. It's obvious that they should say that because it's their newest product on their market, but they made it seem like their regular skunk2 valve train was junk compared to their PRO SERIES. As for me, I'm trying out my SK2 PRO2 with my TODA valve train that I used with my TODA A2.

 

Ok this idea may sound crazy, but hear me out.... Why not run the VT that was designed to be run with those cams? I know, I know, I must be CRAZY

 

i know that would solve all questions, but how mayn people really do that? lol... i already have the itr, so im gonna run with just stage 1's then for awhile.

 

haha its only a stage 1 cam

reasons why i despise the word "stage" in reference to automotive performance.

 

when the phrase "only stage 1" is used here, it is in reference to a higher performance cam, in which would require more aggressive valvetrain as the "proseries" its better than just stage 1, therefore using the termonolgy just stage 1, states that one is settling with a cam that provides less performance than that with a more aggressive lift. The stages are used to easily distinguish between the different levels of performance. thanks
