Jun 3 vs TODA C - Durability / maintenance

Yup, I think it is not only Malaysia and it happens else where..

People are always talking about which cam make the most peak power and talk about only Jun 3, Toda C, Skunk2 S2/3 and other RACE ONLY CAMS. Do you all know on STREET USE, how often do you rev your car past 8.5k rpm?? Do you all know how it feels like using RACE ONLY CAMS on your daily use Honda especially in the morning and after work rush hour?? Couple with ligthen flywheel and uprated clutch, it is a real bitch to drive!! Everyone just have to understand STREET USE have to use STREET PERFORMANCE CAMS for relaibility, economical and most important Drivability!! Of course if can, we want something more power than CTR cams.. haha..

Last year, I was also looking high and low, all over KL, just for a MILD CAM like JUN 1/2, TODA A/B or some street cams that can give slight better power than CTR, but none to be found except for the RACE ONLY CAMS.

So i was pretty fed up with it, and decided to get someone to bring in STREET CAMS for me from USA and JAPAN. Waiting for it to come in April to do more testing.. :regular_smile:

Good discussion:regular_smile: agree with you. Many ppl clueless on cam selection, they think that bigger is always better !! Before this we've use JUN type 2 on our race car (not honda) and gain good horsepower. JUN type 2 is consider "mild" by our local standard, but with the proper setup (head job) it can beat most of the "whatever high profile race cam" out there. Until the ralliart cam came through then.

Wa lau... Only one day so many replies and feedback...

DCVtec, soulfly - Before cam broke i was doing one flying lap at consistent 9k rpm, then on the cooling lap, on the back straight as i shift to 5th and at about 6.5k rpm the cam just gave way!!

Jonny9 - Before you can set your AFR and ignition maps, you will have to set or dial in the cam degreeing.. And what to set or how much to set on each cam is difficult part. The higher the lift and the longer the duration the harder to set it properly.

ace79 - 'sweet spot' is what i felt was the ideal setting giving good throttle respond and a balance of mid range and top end. I wouldn't know exactly how horses the CTR cams will versus a stock B16A. I have a set of CTR cams that i do use for MME spec engines. They are much easier to set and offer very good respond particularly at low to mid but of course never the top end power like a full race cams. and CTR tend to peak its power at 8k to 8.5k rpm.

J101 - Thanks for your kind comment

Sorry bro.Just wanna know where u set up your car?Can share?I also looking for mechanics to do some tuning for my cams
 
All the commen and opinions are very well and i really benefit it.
I wonder how is the perfomance went it come to H22A? Since u guys are talking mainly regarding to B16 or B18 rite?? Was it the same to the H22A??
