How much HP shall I expect from just dropping these bad boys into a b18c1?

 

UP

 

15 drop in, 20 tuned.

 

Wow 15 is great if that's just drop in... Thx stinky

Anyone wanna give some rough estimates of what I'll be running in the 1/4 with a stock GSR with just these cams and nothing else? Not even exhaust or intake.

 

Hm...i highly suggest you make your engine breathe better before you just drop these cams in...seriously. When i said a drop in 15 horse power, i thought you at least had the basics. I was just going off of what other people get with itr cams. Most say they get like a drop in of 10 horsepower with ITR cams. Since the stage 1's make about 6-7 more horespower i just estimated a drop in of 15 horsepower.

 

You freakin liar. You don't own a civic. You own a Prelude!!!!!

 

Stinky I am new to this I want to know what kind of cams I should use for My Civic HX?

 

If you already have the basic bolt ons (i/h/e), the skunk2 stage 1 cams are excellent for that kinda fairly stock motor. Just drop it in, get some new valve springs, retainers, chipped ecu, a skunk2 intake manifold, cam gears, and DYNO TUNING and you will make good power . For a mild cam i recommend the skunk2 stage 1 just from what i've heard about it. Everyone seems to be satisfied with it. Either that or the Toda Spec A if you have the money.

 

hey u have an HX? that's a SOHC...skunk2s only make DOHC vtec cams...u can get like regrinds or somethin i know some companies make single cams...check that out...

 

if u have the stock motor VTEC-E, there's no performance cams (as far as i know) for a d16y5, vtec-e is pretty different from regular vtec.

 

skunk is making cams for sohc motors, also i hear good things about the ZEX cams for the sohc motor. those are available now
