None, for a street car. Its just a big lobed cam that does away with having a third lobe for vtec, you just run the one big cam profile.

It kills vtec.

You need to read up on them if that's your assumption.

Its a very high lift camshaft that doesnt have the third lobe.i have a feeling you might end up unplugging the VTEC solenoid? not quite sure. If you know how a VTEC camshaft reguarly looks like then look at the Killer and you'll see. not reccommended for street use.

VTEC = good low end torque, good emissions, good fuel economy + high lift cams for high rpm power.

VTEC killer systems = reduced low end torque, poor emissions, poor fuel economy, only high lift cams for high rpm power. Using them in a car that's going to be used on the street is just stupid.
