Default top fuel cams

Do any of you guys know of anyone using these cams? I want to order some for my turbocharged type r. I saw them in one of my hyper rev books and these are the only turbo cam I've seen from a japanese manufacturing company. Anyone know horsepower gains from these cams? thanks in advance

If they are discontinued then that would mean you'd only be able to find them used. Try options auto salon.

Try Toda A's. Supposedly those guys in Japan love to turbocharge a motor with Spec A's. Odd...

interesting to hear about people using toda A's for turbocharging.....I just emailed toda about what they think about using A's for turbocharging, do you know any horsepower figures for the A's used on a turbocharged motor?

Don't you think it kind of depends on the size of the turbo and the amount of boost??

Yeah, who would have know that you can Turbocharge a lil n/a honda motor?...nice trying to sound like a smart ***, but obviously someone had to be the guinee pig...and it just so happened that it worked well...I'm Toda A's but anything else will probably cause overlap w/ too much duration...
