how can you tell the differance between the CTR and the GSR cams and is there much of a differace between the two for added HP with no other internal mods and with the basic bolt ones?

 

theres a difference, only slightly though, i didnt really feel it untill i got my **** tuned

 

physically if you look at the intake cam on the distributor side you will see two rings on the ctr camshaft.

The duration of the ctr cams makes them one of the aggressive of the oem honda family.

Good midrange to topend power for the price.

CTR best honda cam all around
especially when tuned...
a vafc and ctr cams my friend added 14 hp to his gsr motor.
proven cam

 

i look at the intake cam and it had 2 groves and 3 rings anyone has that site that you can determane the diff??

The only difference between the CTR and the ITR cams are that the CTR Intake cam has a 3 degrees longer duration on the VTEC Lobe compared to the ITR cam.

Edit: are you happy

I know it's nit picking but duration is longer not higher

 

3 degrees, up until 2000.... the '00/'01 ITR cams have the same 18' as the CTR's. its up through '99 that the ITR's had 15' duration.

 

yes you will see gains by dropping in ITR or CTR cams if your replacing GSR cams. You'll see decent gains by tuning and you will notice it from the stock GSR cams. So, if your wondering if you should do it....then yes if you want more power

 

would it be better to go with some crower cams or with some ctr cams?

was that change only on the 00/01 itr cams, what's the duration of the pre 00 itr cams? was there anything lower than 15'?

 

my '94 gs-r cams have a "J" stamped on intake/"K" on the exhaust cam between the 2nd and 3rd set of lobes. hth.

 

does anyone have pics of a ctr ex cam and a stock gsr cam?

or the link to find them

 

anyone?

even if they did have a pic remember we are talking about mm here its gonna be very difficult to be able to tell them apart. I have stock b16 cams and Spoon Cams, i was comparing them u had to look very closely... the duration u can easily see but as far as the lift it wasnt so easy.

 

So if i swap a CTR intake cam into my UK ITR (with tuning) i should see some gains? The exhaust cam is the same right?

 

Exhaust cams are the same
