Im just saying that if you change all these variables with the cams springs ect.. there is going to be more stress on the belt and a stock oem one might not be able to handle it and if it can probably for not as long. The portflow/itr setup is close to stock that is why I think it works well but the ramp angles on the the toda cams are much steeper than stock and that could also have an effect. Id post the link to honda-tech but my password is now differrent and my cookies saved the old one and I can no longer access it from my house If someone did the search then posted it here there is some good info in there.

OT: how can I reset my cookies?

I think this is just silly. Sure with a steeper ramping of the cams and increased spring rates the force required to turn the camshaft is going to increase but I dont see how youre going to start snapping belts all of a sudden. Timing belts were designed to run for quite some time and during that span they become fatigued but still manage to hold together. If youre running a valvetrain that is so obviously out of stock specs then the owner should be aware that the timing belt is going to fatigue a lot sooner. Id be more willing to believe that the belt tension was improperly set when resitting the belt rather than belt breakage due to the above variables.

...KJ...

-open windows explorer [windows button on your keyboard and
E at the same time is a short cut]
-on the left side of the explorer click on the plus next to
the windows Dir.
-open the cookies folder that will be displayed on both sides
of the window. clicking on it once will display
the contents on the right side of the window.
-delete all files out of the folder. [cntrl and A selects
all then delete key will of course delete the files
for you]
