Default ITR DC2 cams into B16a2

Is there any other bits that is needed to make a B16a2 run with ITR DC2 cams?

This is a UKDM car and the ECU has already been mapped before. Would i need a different map, bigger injectors etc?

you can use stock injectors, when you switch the cams its gonna have to be retuned as well as if i were you i would get itr valvesprings to be safe, you can run gsr valvesprings inners and outers but i wouldnt rev it past 8200

i would not run itr cams or even gsr cams on b16 valvesprings they are weak and usually only have single outer springs on the exhaust which i can push the retainer down and remove the keepers by hand lmfao ive done it

Sounds good lad, hadn't planned to do too much work to the engine yet. It will be getting a re-build in afew months anyway so i'll keep it below 8200 for now.

Thanks to both for your replies

When i was buying the ITR cams i compared them to a pair of CTR cams the same boy had and they seemed to have the same lift but more duration on some lobs.

Is there much of a performance difference between the ITR and CTR cams when fitted into a B16a2 engine?

ctr intake cam has more duration then itr cams.... on the intake cam only

itr cams are the same jdm 96-98/usdm, 96-01........ ctr cams are the same as jdm 99-01 itr cams

again do not drop those cams in on b16 valvesprings as the guy above just said he had a gsr

it is all up to you and its your engine but i wouldnt do it personally only on gsr or better inner and outter springs

So it wouldn't even be ok, like cibao2ner said, and keep the revs below 8200rpm?

I spent the last of my modding money on the cams, nobody said i'd have to change valve springs too.

So it's a no go all together? The car won't be getting piles of abuse and no reving it off the clock, thats whats killed the engine in the first place. Don't know why they thought having no limiter was a good idea.

as he said a bone stock gsr... that is the smallest valvepsrings i would recommend using i dont recommend using b16 valvesprings but you can ask other people what they think about it...

if you want to run itr cams on b16 springs be my guest but dont say i didnt warn you

Sorry lad, forgot that GSR is a Integra, still getting uses to the whole Honda thing lol.

So would any valve springs from a bigger B series engine be better than the B16 springs, the ITR being the best?
