Cam Shafts and Gears
 

I would like to put some cam shafts and gears on a itr and was wondering if I put stage 3 cam shafts on it (with a good tune of course) would there be any down falls on doing that and would I have to upgrade the valve train or could I put them on without upgading it

upgrade the valvetrain

OK well what would be the highest stage I could go safely without upgrading the valve train

Re: Cam Shafts and Gears
 

what the hell is a stage3 camshaft? Some specs would be nice along with the manufacturer name.

+1. Type R cams are really good to start with. I wouldnt replace them with a cheap set. JMO. :cool:

Buy some valvesprings and retainers.

Get some sort of stage 2 cam.

I recommend Skunk2 valve springs and retainers, and Skunk2 Pro1s or Skunk2 Stage 2s.

Select your tuner, Matt Shue(he posted above) or Shad or my buddy Patrick at MRD.

You cannot go wrong with any tuner, choose your came wisely though. I'm a skunk nut.

if you already have ITR spring/retainers, the only safe cams i would put int here are skunk stage 1s. not the Pro 1s, just the tuner stage 1s.

With a stock ITR though, i'd like to see some Skunk 2 Pro 1s and their springs/retainers.

I would like to get skunk 2 stage 3 cams, thats what I was refering to

Re: Cam Shafts and Gears
 

you can ONLY do that if you upgrade your valvetrain.

you have to upgrade valvetrain..but the itr cams are great as they are
