So has anyone else beside Importbuilders and Mike K tried the JUN II intake cam with the stock exhaust cam combination? Did you get similar power gains?

 

.....be a man, get the new JUN 4s

 

^ and spend $5K on the head and block to run them to their potential.

I like the combo, requires good tuning. I'd mix a Skunk2 Stage 1 and an ITR ex cam if I were you, give it a whirl. No one has tried that yet, or at least from what I have seen

 

Nah, Sinsii, made 205 whp with stock ITR compression, Jun 3s and the JUN ECU.

Merritt has tried this, and I think she is still running it like this til this day. But she told me she hasnt got it tuned yet. And I believe katman also tried this, but also never tuned it.

So it has been tried and it will work. But still no results of any proven power.

 

why do people drop cams in but do not tune? i'd be very anxious to know if i was making maximum power/torque...

Beats the hell out of me. I know Jason aint all about the big bang power. Cant speak for Merritt. But I like most just want a fun car to drive. So if that means sticking with my CTR cams, then thats fine with me. I just wanna do some events.


But going with a set-up like that, I would think its only right to tune it. I know Jason tuned his old motor which had the Spoon intake and ITR exhaust cam.

 

spoon intake cam and itr exhaust cam = worthless

i had the jun 2 itr combo....car had no ballz until after 5k rpm then it took off...made 216/151 on my 2.0L with the jun/itr combo after tuning

I could careless, Im not buying that set-up

Hell, alot of Spoon crap is worthless in my eyes. But to some, its the god sent JDM parts from honda heaven.

Nice to hear input on the two, thanks for the comment on the combination.

 

what would be the benefit of only running the jun intake cam and not the exhaust cam too, just from a cost standpoint?

From a cost standpoint? You'd only have to buy one cam. Am I missing something here?

yeah ,i'm making sure i'm not missing anything here, it seems that you would be seriously sacrificing the performance of the intake cam by not running a jun exhasut cam too, so i'm wondering if LOWER COST is the only reason that people would want to run this setup? or are there other benefits?

 

No one has a dyno of this setup?

 

yes, the cost thing is the only issue. i have a dyno graph of it but i have to scan it...put it this way, this vs. my spec b setup is a joke...spec b's had 15-20whp and 15-20lbft from idle to about 5k rpm vs the jun 2/itr combo...the combo is worthless unless you stay over 5k rpm which was what my vtec was set at...so if you only do track races or drag its cool. for a street car it sucked

But IMHO, you cant really compare the two set-ups against each other. Toda B's will blow Jun2's out of the water. I'd think Jun3's and Toda B's ould be more of a comparson. And If Im not mistaken, the JUN2 in/ITR ex set-up was mostly a midrange set-up. So people looking for a little more mid, and a tad bit more top-end would go with this set-up. Plus save a few dollars.

Search the archive for Mike K, he did the test. I might have it saved in my email, I'll check.

 

i could care less. i am running jun 3 cams in my car now...all i am saying is the setup made no power below 5k rpm...my itr cams destroyed that setup from 3-5k rpm as well...the car was just plain flat and it was tuned properly with hondata. if you want to do the jun 2s do the whole set. thats the best advice i can give you

spec c's vs jun 3's would be more comparable.....

 

if you look at the import builders comparison, jun wins peak power and toda wins midrange and more likely the street useable power categories

Nah, Jun 3 and Jun 4 arn't the same
