how can you tell if they are the real deal? i know on bseries itr and ctr cams they have rings on the ends to tell them apart....what about kseries?

 

bump

i found this, but it also is indefinite....

 

I think there is a little sticker on one of the lobes?


Bump!

 

Find the specs and measure it with a micrometer.

05 type s cams are identical to the type r cams, same size cam lobes and i think the same part numbers... look into it, check clubrsx. there was a big dicussion about it

cause they are better than the oem 03 rsx cams.....ive seen multiple dyno graphs of them making anywhere between 235 and 243 whp in k20a2's....with all my mods anyways....and they are oem and i can get them dirt cheap and with s2000 springs and retainers and you can rev to 9000 too....oh and the dc5r cams give you more midrange and top end torque too, the low gears are already pretty useless in my car anyway so i need it to pull all the way to the top

k-pro, rbc manifold, throttle body and adapter, hondata gasket, rdx turbo injectors, aeromotive fpr, dc race header, skunk2 megapower full exhaust, clutchmasters stg2clutch, 8lb flywheel, wally 255, etc.

i already got the cams springs and retainers.....so i should know in the net couple weeks if it makes a difference...i also plan on later getting a tsx exhaust cam....for just a little extra bump....

 

theres no way that you are going to make 243 on itr cams, when i had itr cams in my car with rbc, throttle body adapter, injen cai, buddyclb exhaust, dcrh, motor mounts and kpro i only made 215 on a dyno jet... and i have the k20z1 motor... ull be around 210-220 with ur mods... you should just get satge 2 cams...

 

mine is at 220 right now...without the cams.....but before you ask i dont have the graph to show you cause the dyno was done in GA and i now live in alabama and havent dynoed it since getting the car here....and i have the k20a2...its a lot different...but well see..i could be wrong

i have to agree with you a little, but i got the cams spring and retainers for only $165, so if they only make 5hp it will be worth it....

yeah i agree, and in the future i will go with something like that, but now being a little short on cash, and for 165 bucks, i think its worth it

 

im running the buddyclub spec 3 cams, and its a ncie big improvement over stock...but it also depends on the tuner also.. i have a set of 05 type s cams if ur itnerested.. pm me

also from what i gathered on k20.org, the 05-06 intake is the almost identical but not the exhaust, it is different.....and it makes the most power to run a r intake cam and a tsx exhaust cam....
