well im really trying to troubleshoot my problem here. i had skunk2 1 cams put in my GSR about a month and a half ago. i had an initial power decrease and vtec laggd. my honda mechanic installed them and said he advanced the timing a lil. he is a reputable tuner too. then we had a snow storm a month later and my car started lagging like hell after it. i cheked all my exhaust components and seem ok.no leaks and muffler is fine. could be clog but i wanna execute hear. could my igition timin be way off or even slipped?

my symptoms after snow: suddenly lost all torque in whole powerband, exhaust tone deepens AND gets louder after 3000 rpms. not sure if its related but MOTOR gets exceptionally loud @ 3000 too, almost like the valverain is gettin louder. its not "ticking" but more of a higher pitched "ssshhhhh" sound.
please help and if any part isnt clear, just ask. thanks H-T
