Car is a EG, DAILY DRIVEN

my questions are would skunk 2 stage one cams with a tune be enuff to hit 13s? also
should i minus well go stage 2 cams instead of stage one?

 

go stage 2 will get you there or close, do not get stage one

 

I agree...I think you're going to want to go with stage 2 cams to get close to 13s. Look around the forum at other other builds...very few builds with stage 1 cams turning 13s. Mid-high 14s maybe.

Last year I was running a 14.5 at 94mph on a stock b18c1 bottom end with b16 head, and a stock ls header, I think with a better header/cold air intake and a tune I could have gotton high 13s so stage 2s would deff get you there ooo yeah I was only pulling 2.2 60 foot times

 

Stage 1s should be plenty to get you there. Get a better exhaust also

 

I would like to see someone who actually has stage 1s on a similar build as the OP post their ET/trap speed. I'm doubtful that stage 1s will get you there. Always willing to eat crow though.

dude u dont need cams u need slicks, my stock as b16a ran 14.0 at 99mph im sure u can break 13's with just slicks

 

I was knocking on 13s with gsr cams and 3 cylinders. It's not that hard.

 

agree'd 13's should be within reach with the stock cam's.

The upgraded cams will just make it easier.

 

there are guys who've gone 13s with bolt ons b18c eg hatchs and slicks, you don't need aggressive cams to get there,

 

OK, there are a lot of "there are guys that" and "I was close to" comments here. How about posting time slips and detailed build info? If I thought I could hit 13s on a stock B18C1 w/bolt-ons, I would never have gone through the trouble of building it. Like I said, there's a crow all ready for me to feast on. When I see time slips, I'll start scarfin'.
