[datboyjoe]

I have a set of stage 2 skunk2 cams, with high compression pistons and valves, should I be runnin this in my motor to ge ttha full power or should I find sumthing better, and if I should run sumthing better wat should I run that's high compression,

You should be fine with the S2 Stage 2 cams. Just make sure you get a tune.

 

[heykosal]

maybe valve springs and retainers to match? and definetly a tune.

might wanna get some other bolt ons as well to get the most power outta those cams.

x2!

 

[heykosal]

x3 like intake, header, cat, cat-back, maybe some cam gears too.

No, you will definatly need the cam gears, and the valve train. Are they the pro series?
I just got the pro s stage 1.

 

[ltrain]

get some cam gears and intake manifold with tune and youll be a happy motherfucker

man this thread makes me want to drop the gsr, pick up a type-s and do the breathing mods+cams and put down 200+ whp.

how much crank hp do you think a b18c would make with the aforementioned S2 S2 cams, springs and retainers, gears, breathing mods, tune and intake manifold?
do his high compression pistons and aftermarket valves make a big difference also?

 

[vtecvaz]

with high compression you have to have an aggressive intake exsaust cam, you got to get that pressure out. If not that shit will bite you in the ass. Well tuned in a B18C1 should get in the 200 well tuned.
When running cams theres certain degrees you must turn them in order for you idle not to go bonkers.
