Hey guys

Anyone running SK2 PRO 2's with Supertech springs and/or valves on a B series? I just bought some pro 2's for my all motor GSR and I want to start on my valve train now. I know SK2 recommends pro series valve springs but is it possible to get the same results using supertechs springs instead? Ive heard good things about them and they seem to be a nice amount cheaper than Skunk2.
Any input on this is appreciated.

 

 

I've had success with Supertech springs, just make sure your clearances are good.

 

Thats very good to hear, you were using Pro2's ?

 

Yes. I've used Pro2s with Skunk2 Pro series springs, Rocket SL springs, Supertech Springs, and Ferreas. All have been fine, obviously there are many variables whether parts will work or not. Just make sure u have proper clearances and you'll be fine.

 

I've had luck w/ supertech in the past as well. Good parts for a good price.

 

Decided to go with a supertech setup today. I gave real street performance a ring and got some much needed help. The guy I spoke to gave me a pretty damn good deal plus he got points for being, polite, professional, and on point. I belive his name was Trevor. .. anyway kudos

 

Anyone else who has info on this topic please chime in

 

to give you an idea of how much pressure to use, 55lb Rocket Motorsports SL springs work fine with most cams to 12,000 rpms

SLs are also good enough for some 700whp turbo engines in North Carolina

 

I went with supertech springs and Ti retainers
and OEM sping type LMA's

 

i ran the h100dr on roller cams without any issues and ran the lighter spring rate st's on a set of toda c's without any problems at all.

 

Lol 12k rpm.... is that that rotary mod.

Still thats good to know I only plan on taking him to 8500-8700

 

I was actually thinking about the Skunk2 LMA's. Seemed like it was worth it.

 

I was actually talked in to getting the h100d's. Guy said the dr's were usually used for turbo setups or really aggressive cams.

 

some people think they're fine, others i've heard of sagging.
Honda OEM only cost me $20 more so I went for them

 

Check my build, Im running pro 2s with supertech valves/springs and skunk2 LMAs its been running great for me!

 

The st have more seat pressure over s2 so no harm done. I personally would run st Just for the peace of mind.

 

Sagging? Thats not good

 

Definitely going to check that out

 

Yes but I dont want to much seat pressure. I actually ended up going with ST's H100D springs. Got a good deal on them too (yay me lol)

 

what is sagging?
my friend install s2 springs and s2 lmas..and it makes some dieselengine sound but works great.
