i have asked this very same wuestion with the same cam options and someone told me to ask my tuner what he is comfortable with and what he feels will get the most out of your setup. the truth is every setup is different and you wont really know until you get it on a dyno and try them out. i have seen good power with all of those cams. the stg 2 or pro 1's would be my choice for a dd.

 

pro 1's

 

do you have anything to degree the cams?

 

Yep, Have skunk2 cam gears

 

no. I mean a cam degree fixture.

I've got absolubtly no idea what that is..

Im pretty sure my mechanic will, (I THINK)

 

i would stick to the tuner cams then.

 

i would go with tuner cams unless you bring the head to a builder and have them install the cams, gears and degree the cams. if your gonna do that then go with the pro 1's pro 2's might be too much for that motor.

 

I would say that the pro 2's are a little big for your setup...and as 98vtec implied if you are having someone whom has the knowledge as to how to degree the cams in then go with pro 1's if your going to be putting in the cams and bringing it somewere to get tuned go with the tuner stage 2's (still need knowledge but a lot easier for your average enthusiast to install) either one of those 2 cams will compliment your setup well........good luck

 

engine management?

why? pro 1's will be better if he has a competent tuner.

 

you might actually want larger than h22 injectors. I'm at 99% duty cycle above 8000 rpm with mine using s2s2 cams. get an adj. FPR as a quick fix

 

I would go with tuner series stage 2's. +1

 

he already bought cams

 

Ill let you all now when we start tuning. hope we hit 200whp

This ain't no SOHC A DOCK.

I must admit I did LOL when I saw your picture of a cam fixture........I figured you meant cam gears when you asked about the OP having anything for cam adjusting.......seeing that you really meant a cam fixture had me lol'ing...........I'm such a loser......lol.

I realize my post adds nothing to this thread and I apologize.

 

what cams you buy?

 

Got Skunk2 Pro 1's

H22 inj. Im not really sure about the size because these are OBD1 inj. I know that OBD2 ones are a bit smaller (270-290cc)

What injectors size would be optimal? also, is the stock fuel pump good enough? I have a 93 CX hatch.

usually with cams i just get fuel injectors like RC 310's/FPR.

 

Eg6DR, I'm doing almost the same set up with my gsr civic, I have the skunk2 im, 4-1 header,pro 65 mm throttle body, k&n intake, and just got some skunk2 pro 1 with skunk gears and valvetrain, my question is who are you using to do your set up, because I don't trust anybody with my car, do you know well the shop or people that are working on your car.

 

i would get a walbro fuel pump and larger injectors. ill tell you right now with my experience, you are going to run out of fuel when you get it tuned. stock injectors kept me at 206 whp, even with a 255 fuel pump. once i had it re-tuned with rc 310's and a 2-layer headgasket, it jumped to 220 whp. sean at church automotive testing told me that i would have ran out of injector and around 210.

 

obdI h22 injectors are 345cc
