Icon3 Cams and Valve springs for CT-ENG SC

Hello all Im wondering what cam shafts and valve springs would be best for apllication with the CT-Eng SC stage 2 with flashpro for my 07 Civic Si Sedan!....If that changes it at all. Im still learning and from the research Ive done it looks like skunk 2 pro series would be a good choice but wanting to make sure from those of you who are better educated with S.C. FI appliction.

No, at the moment I am saving up to afford it but am also purchasing other mods so when I do purchase the SC, i only have to purchase the SC as to be cheaper over time then one lump sum, as well as all installed and tuned at the same time... I.e Cams, valve springs, TB bore, Skunk2 Megapower header, Flashpro.

I guess they like you more than me. I have no friends here....sob sob.

I was attacked my first day on honda tech for having hoop dreams and aspirations to one day own a turbo and asking questions about a kit that I didn't even own yet. People on here gave me **** and I didn't even know why. I thought it was pretty effing rude and childish.

And all you non believers in ajpurbopittsburgh wonder why I'm such a smartass and overly sarcastic. Now you know and can only blame yourselves for my rediculous comments! haha

My first thread just to refresh your memory. The first reply had animosity written all over it.

Screw whoever attacked you, who cares if you or I have not yet purchased what we are inquiring about, what does it matter anyhow? A question is a question and owning the item does not change the fact one still requires knowledge. So who cares what peeps think!

Also, AJP...you aren't over it yet. You brought it up again...and also, in the same thread, you lied to RICO (via PM) about already having the kit installed. Lame.

I love when Type X makes his once in a blue moon post in this forum just to chew someone out.

Actually your mistaken if you had actualyl read what my poost was about, then you would be aware I was not asking which ones I cant use I was asking if anyone knew of which would be best for sc stage 2 application.. so how about you read what been asked before offering up your own ignorant opinion that no one cares about.

This is what I was sent as a reply from Ct-Engineering:

With our stage2 supercharger kit making over 300hp to the wheels on a stock engine, we would not recommend cams on top of that unless major work has been done to strengthen the bottom end. Once that is done, you would need to create a tune from scratch with a FlashPro or similar tuning device, to take advantage of possible increases.

I read what you wrote about what cams would be best...Then you posted "Yeah well I emailed Ct-Engineering and they finally responded back to me and said the same they dont reccomend cams for thier stage 2 ct." Sooo the thread is useless. If you would of researched before you posted then we wouldnt have a meaning less thread full of **** that you DONT have and probly wont ever have. BTW if you didnt care about my opinion you wouldnt of quoted me and responded to my post. Good day Panduh

And agaion if you only knew all the information, the reason I said I emailed Ct-Engineering and they finally responded back to me [/B] Is because I emailed them over 2 weeks ago and figured they were not going to respond so therefore I posted this thread asking if any others knew, since I wasnt getting a response from the makers of the SC.. So again I say your reply was useless becasue if ya havent noticed im pretty sure most people dont care about others who feel a need to talk ****, u feel my thread is useless, I feel people like you who find it necessary to put people down useless. So thank you come again!

I don't think I was lying. But that was back in october I think. I'm thinking I had the car in the shop that was putting on the kit and I put up a thread to see if people had it and what kind of power they had because I was really anxious at that point and it was a long week waiting for the install.

C'mon Fiji I just want you to be my friend please??? We could be boyz and roll around in our Si's and pick up bitches!

Try tuning the stage II with just the Flashpro. We have been able to hit 290 to the wheels with my Supercharger (Stage III Pulley), with stock cams, larger injectors, SSR custom race header and flashpro.

You know, if I remember correctly, your first few posts were basically slamming others for mods that gave them small gains. You were putting people down and bragging because you were going to install a AJP turbo and be putting down 396hp to the wheel. That might be why people gave you crap for so long.

I could be wrong, but I thought that was you. If I am wrong, then I appologize. I must be thinking of some other user with AJP*********.
