I had the Skunks stage 1 and when VTEC kicked in it pulled pretty hard..........but I will have to say go with Toda's becuz of personal rapings I've taken from cars that have the same setupo as I did but just with those cams instead of my skunk2's

toda spec a is hands down the best cam you can buy if you don't want to

A) fuck with the valvetrain
B) buy hondata
C) have a rough idle

just take the lift and duration of both cams write them down

look at your timing and see which one benefits better
