How to know?

[mySICKOcb7]

I have a stock JDM H22a and my boi is selling me Type S cams and i wanted to know if i'll feel a difference once i put them on, then tune the car?

[BB6-SH]

expect 10whp with those cams.

[mySICKOcb7]

is it worth it? Do i get more torque, alot or just a bit? Do i need to change anything before dropping them in?

yeah it's worth it depending on how much u pay, U will gain torque but it will be a couple not sure on how much exactly. Honestly from everything i've read some people say u need to upgrade the valvetrain and others say u don't. U should do some research on that though.

any other suggestions from anybody else? Or more info on wat I should get?

you should get some turboez and some naws

lol! From what I have heard the Type S cam is equivalent to a Stage 1 cam.

not to thread jack, but I heard that the f20b camshaft is the same as type s??

i saw some dyno's they basically pull close to the same numbers.

the F20B T-spec (manual) has similar cams with the H22aR

i was going to say the same thing. But with stage 1 cams you dont have to upgrade valvetrain. Unless you upgrade more

[fatboy1185]

if they are under a couple hundred bucks, get them, you dont need to upgrade the valve train. just keep shifting at your normal redline

If the price is right, get em. Brand new, they sell for $600... and I could get some slightly wilder "stage 1" cams (that don't require new valve springs) for that price or less. If you can get em for $400 or less, it's a good deal. As long as they aren't in bad shape... and you KNOW they're Type S cams (I had a friend with a Type S engine... that wasn't.)

tuning tuning tuning.

make sure your car gets properly tuned after the install. what kind of ECU do you have with the swap?

[mySICKOcb7]

i have a p28 chipped and tuned for a stock H22a, but it was tuned for my friends stock H22a, so i might have to re-tune it for my car because I really think it isn't pulling the way it's supposed too.(not hard enough)
