Welcome! I think you are the first Italian member here.
I would get an JDM header first if your DC is USDM.
I believe Skunk stage 1 is not much different than the stock ITR cam...

Re: Info for Italy! (DutchITR1689)
how about telling us whats available to you in terms of brand availability, customer support and proper installation/tuning resources...because some of the aftermarkets cam ARE NOT simple drop them in and drive away variety...much more will be needed in terms of maintenance and tuning...
once we have these parameters them a useful recommendation can be made

Welcome! I think you are the first Italian member here.
I Wish I had a chance to drive up to Milan when I was in Italy, I didn't realize 80% of the S2000 and ITR Owners were all up there and the farthest North I traveled was Modena (Obvious Reason Why)
Welcome to the Board, You will find alot of good info here.
BTW I would suggest Toda Cams

Re: Info for Italy! (90CIVICSI)
I would say if you want the most power go with a set of Jun III's or Toda C's. If you go with either of these you will also need to upgrade all valvetrain components and also will need to consider going with JDM header and 2.5 cat-back. An ECU upgrade would also help to squeeze the most power out of this setup. That's just my opinion. Welcome to H-T by the way...Post some pics if you have any

Re: Info for Italy! (Engo)
hey i'm italian......but i live in canada.........
the new skunk2 stage 2 and 3 seem really good........they perform well when tuned properly. also Crower has new VTEC race core camshafts which have pretty big lift/duration and may perform pretty good too......
if you want the best and dont care about the $$$ then Toda or JUN would be the way to go........
just make sure which ever cams you plan to use you use the valvesprings and retainers recomended by the camshaft manufacturer......

Re: Info for Italy! (KillerB18c5)
Bevenuto, Engo.. I too am Italian. My brother and cousin are in Italy now for vacation. Le "ferie" now.. Lucky bastards. 
I think the Skunk2 Stage 2 cams will give you more gains. Most importantly, DYNO tuning your car for maximum results is key. A well programed ECU and a VAFC will be very helpful. Upgraded valvetrain with stiffer valve springs and titanium retainers is important also. I think the stock ITR valves should be fine. Also as mentioned a JDM spec 2.5" collector header and free-flow exhaust will be a big help. 
CIAO.. Good luck..
