Luckily, I work at a dealership, so I could have the mechanics do it. I'm trying to find a dealer that sells Toda cams. Any ideas? Also, does anybody out there have a set of Toda cams that have not been installed yet? Would like to take some measurments........

also you are going to want to go with ti retainers. My old spec c's in my delsol ate holes in many retainers even titanium ones! Toda reccomends their valve train which is made by portflow

I am not sure if anybody has done BACK TO BACK dyno's with their car.
If all goes well and I can actually do what I "WANT" to do. I will be doing a base dyno one day and later that week/month going back and doing a tuning session. Though no "toda" only.
I "want" to do K&N intake/TB/Cams/test pipe/VAFC and then tune it all up. So there will be many factors going into the HP increase before/after.
Dyno time is expensive and time consuming. Though I dunno about the 15HP ON TOP but under the curve I KNOW there are gains of that much or better. G-s2k put on headers before he did Cams and that was proven to give about 8-10hp.(mugen and other dyno's) Thoguh noticed nothing super huge. I ran the mugen headers for almost 2 years in my car then went back to stock.(gonna sell the car) Lost HP was missed but not huge.
Though after the Cams..........he was very taken back almost getting himself into trouble with the amount of power these put down! Spinning tires into 2nd and slipping the clutch under power.

vapor I am confuse at what you are saying. 
Yes, you can run the honda intake springs on the exhaust side. Yes, toda says that you should do so. But, if you can, they would prefer that you use their hi performance springs.

Wait, I think I know where the confusion is, the website might not be up to date. I think the springs are available, since I have a set sitting in my garage.
