Those are Toda Vtec killers.

NO!

3 liter GSR? No such thing.
PSI doesn't mean anything.
Doubtful.

You should definitely upgrade the valve train if you are building a motor but, I was referring to producing the lopey idle.

I cannot believe this is a real thread. How do you make your car sound cammed? You used what you need in the question you asked....

Agressive aftermarket cams are meant to produce power at higher rpms (usually) in Honda's specifically. For more power in high rpms you compromise power and drivability in lower rpms. Valve overlap creates the lope at idle.

If you install Toda Killer cams you're going to have a bad time mmkay.

Set idle at 500rpm.

Profit.

No cams needed.

Bonus "cool noises" if you *** with vacuum lines to make throttle surge cyclicly.
