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.
Got my dc5 type R with itbs on it now, saving up for some dic’s or some cams, would love to see the power gains . Nice one Tegiwa!!! I order all my stuff from you guys for the dc5 , much love from Johannesburg, South Africa 🇿🇦
@@akramdastager45 dude to be honest I’m not really sure… someone I know says he has skunk ultra 2s with retainers and valve springs, that would be the best as the car already has itbs so that’ll definitely help the car breathe a lot better , but then again it all depends on the amount these things cost
@@akramdastager45 I haven't bought anything as yet, I've got the Rev kit, still deciding on the cam setup to go with... I do have itbs on the car so I'm not sure which to go with...

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.
Boy those skunk 2 ultra1 cams would make my k24a2 really come on ... But $1300 us into my canadian dollars $1621 plus tax and shipping would be $$1800 canadian ...makes me think a dry nitrous kit may be better for my poor man budget ..a 50hp shot would put me a bit above the cams ..

No need for the skunk2 cams if the costs affect u too much. On the K24A and A2 drop in 2001/2003 K20A2 intake cam and the 2006/2008 TSX exhaust cam. Great powerband vtec at 5400 rev out at 8600. (with oil pump conversion ofcourse)
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.

Do you have to degree the motor for these cams? The exhaust camshaft centreline? I bought tuner 2s for my k20 and the power feels like it's dropped even though the number is higher on the dyno at the top

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.

Would be nice to see a graph overlaying the curves so we can see where each cam makes more sense

Love these two cam vids...👍
Why not the skunk Ultra 2 Camshafts? 🏁
Exactly!
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.

Skunk2 dic or ultra 1 for my K24 10.5 CR compression car, which would be more efficient? My car is not a k20 11 cr like your test car.
