dr_broon Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 So I think that I know the answer to this question, but I'm going to ask anyway. I've got some itr cams to go in my deck, which hasn't driven for 10 months. It's going to be having some work done, including timing belt, which seems like an ideal opportunity to get the cams in, but getting it mapped isn't going to be possible for a little while, and it's going to need to be mot'd before it drives anywhere. Question is, do I get the cams in now, or forget about it until I can get it mapped? What should I expect if I ran the cams on the p9 ecu?

KiNK43 Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Hmmm. I don't think it will hurt it if your driving sensibly. The low cam will be very similar to c4. Probably even be ok in VTEC. Just not ideal as you already know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noodels Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 (edited) leave it alone mine is pathetic with pk9 although I have sk2 inlet&cams. my advise is sell them,or get another car is it worth 1500 to get a few hp Edited January 9, 2020 by noodels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Ain't gonna cost 1500. My last C4 mapped on teg cams was great. Much more responsive mid range. Plus it's just what we do isn't it. Could argue it's a waste of money moding any car in any way. But Its just a hobby if nothing else. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The skunk2 cams are much more aggressive than the itr ones though? I'm keeping the c4 manifold as I like the idea of the change in length of the inlets for lower revs to try and maintain some grunt low down. I do want to get it ported to match the itr throttle body though. Hopefully I've had the socket fixed on the p28 I've got with Iab control on. I had a chip with a p72 basemap on, but still would want to get it properly mapped. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
