[eg00typer]

I have a stock b18cR ....my mod are i/h/e also going to put in supertech turbo valve spring and TI retainer w/ s2p2 cam......I just wanted to know if anyone have these cams on there type R. Do they make a good a amount of power with stock bottom and stock head with new valve spring and the new cam....Can you drive daily with the cams and is it a big problem on the street like rough idle and again daily driving.

First and foremost, what are the other mods on the car? Internals? What I/H/E? What other work on the head? Port and Polish? What valvetrain?

That will OVER CAM your motor. Meaning, will they work? Yes, however it wouldn't be benificial with stock compression.

For a reference, I have a fully built head (stage 2 P&P) combustion chamber work, supertech valves and valve springs, I also have a 2 layer HG and JDM P30 pistons. Along with I/H/E and larger TB and IM.

So IMO, you need more supporting mods to utilize those cams.

so should i go for the pro 1

[Dave_B]

No, I wouldn't go there either. You need more compression and supporting mods. While you "can" put them in, you won't see the benifits. I run the Pro 1's in my car, with all that is mentioned being already built.

What header/Intake and exhaust do you have?

Is a final drive out of the question? Hands down one of my favorite mods.

Also, what do you plan on doing with the car? Street car? Track car? Drag racing?

I think you need to stop, and re-evaluate what your goals are.

ITB's are not going to give you any more power than a good intake system. While they sound great, the true benifit to them is the throttle response.

I agree with the pump, and the injectors are based on your setup, not what you think is good. Tuning is definitely key to any setup. What header/intake and exhaust do you have? What brands/bolt ons do you have?

MSD is NOT worth it. Stock system will handle all that your going to throw at it NA.

I would spend your money on better bolt ons if I were in your shoes. The clutch and FW make no difference in power.

I would suggest selling what you have, getting the JDM 4-1 header, exhaust of your choice and a different intake. You said intake manifold, what about the air intake?

Take a step back and look at your budget and goals. LMK what those are and we can go from there.

Honestly Dave is DEAD ON with this. My best advice for you right now is get some good council from a local machine/performance shop that has a good reputation. right now you are at the point of wasting money on things you don't need. The best thing you can do is TAKE YOUR TIME. and get good advice before buying things you aren't knowledgeable about. Good Luck man. Bottom line is if your new at this and rush it, your going to crash and burn.
