you running full type r valve train?.. if your using a b16 head i would look into it... i guess they're the most aggressive oem option... can't beat factory r'nd for reliability

skunk2 stage 1. They are slightly more aggressive than the type r cams and easier to get a hold of. You will need a tune though...

Yeah I couldn't agree more. CTR cams are a nice upgrade for the b16, it sounds a lot more agressive.
