Man I got the specs directly form Skunk when they first came out. These cams are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO mild, they have less lift and duration than a stock B16A Si cam, they are based off an old B16A Automatic cam, low lift and short duration, the rep told me for my set up they would not work, he said for a street car running up to approx 15psi and only to 8k rpms. He said power would fall off after 8k or so and anything over 15psi this was not the cam for you. That was my conversation with Skunk2 at least. After getting the specs, I would rather have 2nd Gen B16A cams, GSR or ITR cams anyday. My opinion and advice.

Sweeeeet. Those are the opinions I was looking for. I just sold my S2 stage 2's and was going to get these. The motor is not complete right now. I've got a JDM ITR long block and I guess I'll use the cams from it.

Keep those thoughts coming HT-er's. Thanks
