it you spend money on some cams atleast get some type r cams or something like that gsr cams are a waste imo it's not worth the time or effort of putting them in.

Well first of all it doesn't that much time to swap cams, a guy swapped my JDM B16 cams for GSR in about an hour. They go for about $80 compared to Type-R cams that I see going for like $300. I dyno'd before & after I got the GSR cams & I made 4 whp & VTEC hit alot harder. So yes I think it's worth it.

Stock jdm B16 cams are the worst, the 2nd gen are better but the GSR is best for money in my opinion.

Yea cause they're not too much of a difference from your 2nd gen B16 cams to GSR cams but the JDM B16 cams SUCK!

if you want it to lope just unplug the map sensor lol.

If you have first Gen B16 cams (88-91) then its a good upgrade cause GSR cams can be had for $60-80.

If you have a newer B16, then no, i would switch to ITR cams, more gain for the money

just upgrade to ITR cams or CTRs, more bang for the buck, gsr cams are a waist, thats the first thing I do when I buy a gsr, swap the damn cams out, I really don't see the big diff between gsr's and b16s.
