Default Skunk2 cam gears

Did anyone else see this? Another choice over Toda cam gears.

I've been told that cams are vtec killers?? Would really want cams that's meant for turbo also since I plan to eventually but I don't want to lose my vtec ?

$524.99 each is in the ballpark with Toda price wise.

I saw those a few days ago. What I'm most concerned about is the metallurgy of those gears. I'm not familiar with current skunk2 products. Is their QC/QA good? A gear failure would be catastrophic motor damage here. I remember their stuff from the b-series days and it was the standard made in china quality product.

And as sideways pointed out, if I'm close to toda prices, I may as well get the quality reassurance from an established name.

It's for the pair, not each.

They look very nice I had a set on my civic b series but that is just a timming belt. Idk if would use these if anything went wrong would be very bad like bruthaboost said, wouldn't be fun to adjust them also.

I just sent a stock gear out to be tested as we were in the process of developing an adjustable cam gear.. the stock gears are made out of some pretty cheap crappy metal, you'd have to do some work to make something cheaper and crappier than the stock stuff so I think these will work just fine.

We will have a couple sets in as soon as they are shipping, if anyone wants in let me know. We anticipate these to sell fast.

They will be ~$500 a set. On a boosted application I'm sure there would be some power to be had.
