skunk2 cam gears or camshafts? With the mods you have done, I'd just save your money and wait till you decide if you want to stay all motor, lsvtec, ls-turbo, or what...... I know crower has a real nice package for the LS guys. Don't remember the model number, but my friend had them in his built LS all motor and that thing hauled ***!

Skunk2 doesn't make non-vtec cams and cam gears are a waste on a stock B18A w/ bolt ons.....especially without $300 of dyno time/tuning. Basically you'd be better off buy some crower cams because cam gears on stock cams aren't going to make power.

yeah, skunk2 cam gears are a great set of cam gears (6-bolt) but it probably won't do anything for your car as of now. either save up for the crower camshafts, turbo parts or a b16 or itr tranny.

Save it for something important.....like a college fund for your kids. Seriously, I would probably get some crower cams.

Briancrowers are cheaper and basically the same stuff.....you can read their life stores and such, but the BC (brian crower) stage IIs are basically the same as those crowers you were looking at but under $300. If you look around you can find them for $275 shipped....if you do a search here on honda-tech.

Thanks for the site man. If I get the cams should I go with skunk 2 or AEM cam gears as well?
