what kinda c/r are skunkstg3s good for?

 

11:8 + i believe

 

Im running them in my GS-R headed b16a with 11.5.1 pistons spoon headgasket and oversized valves and put 182hp to the floor.I would recomed you put them in a gs-r block or ls/vtec because my max power was at 8300 rpm.So these cams are made for top end power,wich is a little harsh for daily driving...just my $0.02

 

Forgot to put that the b16a does not have torque!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

 

Ive heard 12.5+ on 1.8s......dunno about 1.6s. im doing 13.0 w/ 82 mm ls/vtec. ill let you guys know how it turns out. should be done in a few days

sounds good.

so the 3's made its peak power at around 8300, thats not where you also redline right?

 

This is not my red line but this is as high as I rev it up to because Idont want to spin a bearing or something along those lines.Im using ACL bearings but i dont trust them because on a honda motor there color coded,and the ACL's are all honda green bearings

 

Ummm with stage 3's you should be in the 13:1+ compression. These are serious cams. If this is a street motor then you would be better off with stage 2's since you compression probly isnt going to be higher then 12's and at that compression the stage 3's will only make about 5-7whp more and you will have no mid range. Stick with stage 2's if this isnt a serious motor.

 

For the Stage 3's, in order to get 25% increase in cranking pressure you need about 12-12.5:1 CR. Any more than 25% and the powerband will become blunted in the high end.
