do you need to enlarge your intake manifold and throttle body to see any gains with these or any cams. I have basic bolt ons but don't know if the RRC/J35 is worth the money right now
TSX cams need help please
Hi,
Im interested in purchasing a set of 2006-2008 tsx intake and exhaust cams. Im new to cams, so any help would be appreciated.
Current Modifications:
-2008 Civic Si Sedan
-stock k20 engine
-AEM CAI V2
-Skunk2 header
-Fullrace 3" exhaust
-boomba motor mounts
-flashpro
my questions are:
-are tsx cams drop and go? no other engine mods needed? (aside from flashpro of course)
-how much do these cost brand new?
-whats a reputable place/website to you buy these from?
-how much do they cost to install?
-if you have a similar setup as mine, what performance gains did you make? feel free to share any dyno results
-how will these perform with a stage 2 supercharger?
-how will these perform with a skunk2 intake manifold and throttle body?
-how do these cams effect fuel economy?
thanks for your help. :dance:

Man that must be a high reading dyno then. And I'm not into how much since all dynos differ but more how much they pick up on a consistent basis.
the only advantage to a more expensive DIC is that they make more horse power from mid range to top end and you can always upgrade the valvetrain down the road to raise your rev limiter. TSX cams offer a better DD cam to me with its intended power improvement area in the low to mid range
They definitely will make more high end power too, tsx cams stop making power much earlier than aftermarket DIC's. The Kelford DIC's make great power clean up to 9K don't they?
that is the great thing about TSX cams, easily affordable and give great DD drive-ability while doing it
