Post the ebay link, are they those crappy cams from the guy who had them custom made for his car club? If they are, don't bother.
buy something you know is good quality...not some hit or miss cams off of ebay. They don't sounds right at those specs for "stage 2 cams".
Do yourself a favor and read this before doing anything - https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1977953...Juicygems is a scam artist. Do a search for xs engineering cams. Stay away from them if you want a strong, reliable motor.

I agree. I would never take the chance and put some "ebay"/unknown cams in my motor and risk ruining it. Look into proven companies: Skunk2, JUN, Blox, etc.

I would buy these
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ZWD1V
Offer them $330-340 with shipping your looking at $350-360. The blox valve springs go for about $150-160 or supertechs go for about $180-190. Really no need for TI retainers on a daily driver. Cams and springs for $550 or less.

Depends on the rest of your mods and your tune. I made 198whp on my 98 gsr with blox b's and 82mm ITR pistons, bolt ons and stock injectors. Im gonna need to PnP my head and get bigger injectors if i wanna make more power.

Probably one of the most dynod cams ever installed in 1.8's. Try searching for dynos under SKUNK 2 Stage 2 since that's what they really are..

Hey man I am running Blox b's. Check out my dyno graph on top of this page : https://honda-tech.com/zero...ge=12. Looks like you got a really good deal! Good luck with the build.
