Default B16A2 CTR cams or ITR cams......boost in its future

Hey guys I been thinking of possibly swapping in either CTR or ITR cams for a lil extra oomph. I was wondering how much gains there are, and if i need any other supporting mods to cope with the cams. will i need a tune? i also plan on boosting it in the future. thanks

either choice is good. CTR cams are better slightly. 00-01 type-r cams are the same as CTR cams. you can throw them in on stock valvetrain and u will not have any problems. just try to stay in the stock redline of ur motor. enjoy ur new cams.

stock springs will be fine, like i said just try and stay out of the 9000rpm area without upgrading to type-r valvetrain.

I vote for 00-01 ITR cams considering they are the easiest to find and generally the cheapest.
