IPS cams or Rkrew cams dont go with toda do some more research before you make your decision maybe call a shop where they do tuning and ask them what cams make the best power

Why do you think you want cams in the first place? Is everything else maxxed out (header/intake/exhaust/k-pro (tuning)?

Get new valve springs. And get the buddy club cams, you'll be glad you did.

not much is done, i have DC sports stainless steel 4-2-1 header, full 2.5 inch skunk 2 catback exahust AEM cold air intake, i was think also about getting the valve springs before you mentioned them, im gonna buy the camshafts, gears, springs and im still deciding on what else also, to install them all at once then im gonna get my car dynoed to be tuned right. or do you guys think im forgetting something??

don't buy the cam gears unless you want to get rid of vtec. and if you get anything above stg. 1, get full valvetrain to go with it. i'd upgrade to a race header before i put in cams, and after you put in cams get an RBC. and dont forget, K-Pro
