Default Just bought ITR Outters and Portflow Inners

NEW in Honda Packaging from Bert-O (I know they are from Bert-O b/c seller told me that he purchased them from Bert-O himself)

They are in Honda Packaging Sealed... Part Numbers:

BLUE - 14761-P72-003
YELLOW - 14761-P73-J02

After I got home...upon further inspection of the ITR springs, I noticed that the YELLOW ones are taller than the BLUE ones...

Is that correct????

ALSO... when placed inside the outter springs, the "PORTFLOW" springs seem to be about a whole coil shorter than the Outter springs...

I have NO Doubt in my mind that the Outters are what they are.. b/c they are SEALED and Painted.... But I found it awkward that there are variations in heights between the Intake and Exhaust Outter Springs..

Also whats the deal with the Short Portflow Inners???

Got another problem.....

Upon FURTHER inspection of the Portflows.... I noticed that ONE (yes only 1) of the Inner Valvesprings is about .25-.50 of a coil taller than the rest of the batch???

What the HELL is going on???

Not sure yet, either 01 JDM ITRs or Spec A's, or Maybe Spec B's, If I go with spec B's I may just go with TODA springs...

The yellow intakes are a little taller, they're suppose to be. Also I wouldn't run the portflow inners on a stock exahust cam. You will probably end up scoring it. I was running all ITR intakes yellow springs and portflow inners and ended up scoring a brand new cam last month that I just bought off Bert-O. I switched back to stock inners and now all is well. They portfows are a bit too stiff for the mild cams.

really stiff spring pressure will put wear on the cam. from wut i know the portflow inner itr outter shouldnt have that much spring pressure. Wes d not trying to be an *** but did u have enough oil in the car. i dont know too much but the spring could have done it if it is real stiff. but i want itr outer and portflow inners on my setup
