Default brian crower cams vs skunk2 pros

i am just about ready to get some cams, springs,and retainers for my prelude.i was looking at both these cams, sk2 pros and crower. whats the difference between them, besides the $200+ price diff. are the sk2 pros really worth the price difference?

i hav stage 1 crowers in my h23...i like them i think crower is just as good as skunk2.....the difference maybe a difference in your horsepower or torque i would check to see which one puts out more or if there equal im not sure...but in my book i like skunk2 better with jdm motors only cause skunk2 only deals with more so foreign vehicles rather then crower goes all around mustangs camaros etc.

Skunk2 all the way.......
Ive yet to see a Crower Dyno that impressed......Spend the $200.
That is if you want actualy power gains throughout the powerband......
S2S1s were worth 12-14whp/10-12wtq from 3500-7500. The Crower Dynos I have seen have minimal VTEC+ gains at best......

Preparing for another Skunk2 vs Crower debate.......This is like arguing Honda vs DUMBestiCRAP in the 4cyl world though.......Crower=Inferior /done
If you do some diggin around you will see what I mean.......

My crystal ball says: No pre VTEC gains and minimal Post VTEC gains with a powerband that stretches a little further than stock...

Cheapskates buy Crowers b/c they are $200 cheaper than S2
People that want good results choose S2......
