yup, every car is different. even if another gsr has the same mods as yours, a paticular VTEC setting that some dude is running won't be optimal for your car. go to a dyno, get it professionally tuned.

yea dude...do ur motor a favor and take that thing to a dyno. Well, make sure the tuner knows what they're doing. It'd be a shame if you didn't dyno it with all that money spent modifying the engine. Keep us updated on ur numbers!! How do you like the skunks man?

I love them ***** man first what i did was just ported and polish the head, did the 3angle valve job, skunk2 intake manifold, skunk2 cam gears and had the stock cams to see if i had felt a difference and set the cam gears at 0,0 it was nice as hell but the only thing was i had a dead spot around 4500 so i put the cams in and man i felt even a bigger difference and the vtec just screamed it was loud as hell, so after like 2weeks i baught the VAFC and after i set the vtec to around 5800 and there was no more dead spot at 4500 it just pulls but the only problem i have is my car is running rich and because of it running rich i using madd oil im adding oil like every 3 days plus by me beating my on my like all day but anyways the cams are worth it..
