have the stage 1's on my GSR now. its much better than my previous ITR cam setup. low and mid range feel about the same as the ITR cam setup, but when the VTEC flows, it pulls ALOT harder

Any problems with the idle with their stage2 cams ? I know other cam mfgrs cut custom cams with stock idle lobes and wild vtec lobes.

I also run the stage 1s, I've put over 15k miles on them so far w/no probs. Stock idle and easier to tune.

Are there any dyno comparisons of the ITR cams vs the Skunk2 Stage1 cams? I know about the dyno graph on the skunk2 website but im sure it is a biased dyno. I'm mainly concerned with the midrange torque/hp gain/loss. Also, would the stage1 cams work with stock gsr valvetrain and revlimit? tia

Skunk2 Stage 1 are probably the best cam to use with stock revlimiter and stock valvetrain.
From what I've heard they make power to 8600rpms.

On the other hand: what valvetrain do you guys use with stage 1's ?
