I doubt you'll get much out of it. if anything at all.

cam gears from what I gather is meant for tunning your engine...

I dont remember cam gears actually giving horsepoewr or anything... although AEM does seem to claim a simple bolt on and you'll increase your hp and torque. yeah right.

but you will be able to tune your power ranges from the high end to the low end or vice versa, via changing the degree in the timing... and this is if you know how to do it

I duno, if you slap cam gears on a dohc vtec engine, maybe you will get some bolt on power... and maybe you'll get more usage power once you tune your power curve too... (ie bring some high end power to the middle..)

but I dont think you'll get any of those hp increase just by slapping a cam gear on a sohc motor.

but its not out anyway. so yeah. I wouldn't spend my money on something like that unless I'mgoing NA and my engine is all built up already and I have a shop to tune my engine for me.. etc. etc. etc.

i was thinking of getting the cam gear also. and in no way is it a bolt on power giving deal. you need to tweek around with your gear to get any results and from what i've read it pretty much adjusts your power curve around abit. this part is a must if you plan on milling your head for more compression. i want one just to see what i can make it do. Hopefully a little better lower end.....if nothing then hell it looks cool under the hood[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
