R18 Tuner Series Camshafts Stage 2


Gain an extra 10+ hp with Skunk2’s Tuner Series Stage II Camshaft for the Honda R18, our premier line of high-performance camshafts for Honda’s R18A1 engines. Tuner Series Stage II Camshafts are designed to optimize horsepower and torque on mildly modified engines and are the result of Skunk2’s years’ worth of drag racing and road racing efforts. No other line of high-performance camshafts even comes close to Skunk2’s Tuner Series.

Skunk2 camshafts deliver unparalleled power as a result of continual, extensive development and testing. By utilizing advanced manufacturing techniques and the latest computerized simulation and modeling equipment, Skunk2 camshafts are able to deliver maximum power across the entire powerband. Skunk2 designs and tests all of its camshafts in-house to ensure the highest quality and performance. Each camshaft is new, not regrind, and manufactured from high-strength, hollow, iron-alloy cores featuring cutting-edge profiles. All Skunk2 camshafts are ground to exact specifications using state-of-the-art CNC cam grinding machines equipped with cubic-boron grinding wheels and feature hardened, wear-resistant lobes and surfaces.

Skunk2’s Tuner Series Camshafts for R18A1-based engines feature Fast Ramp and AMAX profile technology, which increases overall performance and results in unmatched response from idle to redline. AMAX technology simply maximizes the area under the lift curve but without compromising reliability or valvetrain stability. Skunk2’s profiles feature more duration than competitors’ at lifts above 1mm, resulting in greater efficiency and more power. And thanks to Fast Ramp, the same technology used in Formula One racing, seat timing is reduced, which results in additional cylinder pressure and more torque but without compromising valvetrain longevity. The Stage II R18A1 camshafts utilize the stock VTEC economy lobe. This mean you do not sacrifice MPG while cruising, your MPG will remain the same under cruse loads. The Stage II cam also provides more lift and duration, and is a drop in cam that requires no spring or retainer upgrade. To extract the utmost power a tuning device such as Hondata would be required.

It's awesome that Skunk2 did this for all the R18 owners! Usually the R18 motor is left out from good power adders like cams.

This is a great "drop-in" option for more NA power, and will work really well with turbo setups too.

If anyone is interested, we have an introductory special going on for these cams right now. Normal price is $449.99 with free shipping. Please PM me for the special discount.

Yeah that's true. Skunk2 has really tried to crack down on all the fake parts and unauthorized sellers lately. They will not provide any support or warranty service unless you purchase from an authorized dealer.

What else will you be doing? Any mods I should get to support this besides flashpro? I already have intake and exhaust.
Are you asking for my mod list which is a lot sitting in my garage haaa or what for this cam?? This is a drop in cam so nothing has to be done but if you want the usable power you need to, get retuned for it of course. So as always with any car you want to get all the basics done first then do advance stuff like this so basics first

Intake exhaust tune. Then if your serious and want more power the cam turbo kit intake manifold motor etc etc.

so i just bought this cam yesterday i couldn't wait and i just called procivic on the phone and ordered it . now my dilemma is does anyone know if it comes with instructions on how to install it. i been reading on how to remove and install the factory cam and it seems like a really long process involving the removal of many other things, so i dont know whether i should venture doing it myself or pay a show to do it.
