Default Skunk2 Stage 3 Cams

Does anybody know anything about the Skunk2 Stage 3 cams? How much power they make. Anybody know of any dyno plots on them?

you can run SK2 stage III on the street.... it's all in the tuning. I'm not a SK2 fan so I don't have dynos sorry. But the same technology applies to all high lift/duration cams.

i dont think your valvetrain will ba ble to handle that high of a lift cam for very long. thats why its recomended for race only.

I know a guy who has it. He drives it fine. I dont' know how long it will last, but for the time being, it's strong.

I know everyone here hates clubsi... however the B-Series VTEC cam guide posted over there is pretty informative.

You can definetly drive them on the street. However I wouldn't daily drive on them. But like others have said you need the valvetrain to run those high lift cams. As far as Idle goes I have heard some with a rough bouncy idle and others that idle fine. It's all in the tuning/setup of the engine I believe.

Mine runs great and idles fine and I drive it every day!
But my compression is to low for them and I lost 12tq. and .5hp over my old stage 1's

the 3's are for sale

Funny you say this! Omniman from Skunk2 said the Stg III off Vtec lobes are the same as SI cams. Search in Clubsi
