Рет қаралды 18,432
2 жыл бұрынWe’re back with another cam test on Mike’s K20A2 powered Civic EK race car! If you haven't already watched our previous cam test then be sure to check that video out to get up to speed! - • ULTIMATE K-SERIES DROP...
Following on from our first heavily anticipated K-Series drop-in cam test, we've now got our hands on Skunk2 Racing Ultra 1 Camshafts, Pro Series XP Valve Springs, and Titanium Retainers, courtesy of Skunk2 Racing. This enabled us to test this camshaft and compare the results to our last set of tests!
As always, we teamed up with legendary Honda tuner Jesse Halford from J.Cal ECU Calibration to carry out V2 of this test as well as the boys from Motion Motorsport.
The camshafts featured are as followed:

I currently have Skunk 2 dic on my fn2 type r. I would like to purchase the Skunk 2 ultra 1 cams. Does the Skunk 2 ultra 1 cam work well with stock compression. Any advise will be appreciated for me to make my choice to keep dic or purchase the Skunk 2 ultra 1.

Please do a comparison between the drag cartel dic vs drag cartel 2.2 cams. This will be very helpful to see the difference in power and torque at each rpm by going stage 2 instead of dic and is it worth the extra money because with stage 2 cams we have to upgrade the valve train.

Only thing missing from the vid is the need to change the single valve spring seat from single to dual valve spring base and need for new stem seals.

Hi, Skunk2's industry-leading Alpha Titanium Retainers are designed to significantly reduce valvetrain mass, resulting in more horsepower and improved valvetrain stability. Similar to Skunk2's already popular Pro Series Titanium Retainers, Alpha Titanium Retainers feature radius-cut edges for additional rocker arm clearance and reduced weight, strategically positioned lightening grooves, and reduced overall heights for better valve seal clearance and even further weight reduction.

@joshwatton9335 2 жыл бұрын
Jesse mapped my DC5 a month or so ago. Albeit, I have a high compression K24, but we messed about with intake pipes. I had. 3” 90 degree bend on at the start, swapped it out for a 3.5” straight pipe, made 15hp everywhere on the graph. There’s a lot of science behind the intakes, but K Series love short rams. DC5 has more room for the air to escape compare to the EK, I saw a K Swapped EK run a cold air feed from the lower grill up to the filter, apparently massively helped with his heat soak problem.
