Ive been trying to do as much research as i can about this cam for the d17a2 and little to no information is available. I am interested in the crower stage 2 cam plus the required valve components. I understand that a tune is necessary, but does anyone know what other parts are needed to use this cam? Is an emanage necessary, or will the stock ecu handle a tune. If you have these installed please let me know how you feel about this cam and what else i may need.

 

You'll need a piggy-back ECU of sorts, at the very lest. What's the purpose of you buying the cam? Are you going for boost, or trying to go with some N/A build?

 

N/A build on a d17 is it even passable or probable

 

im not looking to do any boost. just a slight n/a build. im not going to do any bottom end at all. the cam is the last mod i will probably be doing to the engine. ive heard that the stage 1 isnt even worth the money, but if i need to pay 2k for a hondata then these arent really worth it either. thanks

If you're not planning boost, you'll be spending a lot of money for no significant gains, just as a warning.

 

no point then. youd just be paying for a rough idle.
