Default CTR cams to B16s - How much of a power loss?

I picked up a set of CTRs before my swap was even running, so I have never ran with B16 cams. I am hurting for cash and am planning on trading my CTRs for B16s + cash. So how much of a difference will I be looking at? Anyone who switched from B16s to CTRs chime in. No tuning was ever done by the way, cams were just installed with the gears at 0,0

At least 10whp, with tuning. (you'll feel the difference)...only good thing is the abundance of CTR cams being sold at a low price...You can sell yours now and buy one again when you have enough $$...

just dont over-cam the motor with that compression. youll want a wider powerband but with a big improved in midrange.
