Has anyone seen this?

On Skunk2's site, they only show cams for the k20a, not our k20z...

has anyone installed these yet? Or is this just an error on procivic's part?

Yeah they fit. Pogi66Ako has the turbo cams in his fg2. I want them too. You can use the power builder on skunk2's website and see what u get.
Is it true though, once you break open the head, you've voided the warranty? What are the specifics regarding the warranty?

Search "moss munguson act" or something like that.

The only thing about getting the cams is that you have nothing to tune it with.

It kinda depends on what's gonna happen. Like if you have bent valves because you miss shift, they can say misuse of driving or they can blame your cams. But if you window stops working they can't blame your cams.
So everyone keeps saying you need tuning for the cams. But, if you get the cams will it do anything at all with out tuning? will you get any power out of them??

Well from what I read on a different thread, brian crower stage 2 cams (I think) added 12 whp to our SI WITHOUT tuning... but then again with tuning we could prob get close to 20 whp with those same cams... Even with bolt ons (rh/e/i) we should seriously consider tuning; tearing open the head and replacing the cams and valvetrain on top of the (rh/e/i mods), you're definately gonna wanna tune that out.
Yeah, although even with that 12HP, it would be running kinda funky, rough idle and just weird. I would rather wait and run them the way they should be, with a good tune.
If it doesn't tear your car up. I can't wait to stick my new crower cam in my firebird, it will sound nice.
Firebird FTL, J/K LS1?

Man, the more I think about camming the si, the more excited I get, because it is an actual power maker, instead of just freeing up HP. All we need is kpro...:(
Shawn Church said that the K20Z3 can see gains from aftermarket cams WITHOUT additional tuning, just using the Hondata Reflash alone. He said that the ECU can handle it, but there would be more power to be made with tuning, or a reflash that was specific for the addition of the cams.
This would be awesome i did cams on my Evo install was not terrible i want to do this after i get some more parts, and i think it would help top end wise
yea so hytech kit ftw there.
