I'm assuming that you would use these to dial out some overlap on a boosted application correct?

Thats the theory, but it's a honda and good low back pressure turbo systems dont always follow traditional "turbo cam" theory

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.

so bye rights i would be able to keep a higher rpm on my boosted strocker with these adjustable cams

Only certain cams kill vtec. not all..

so this is half the price of the TODA cam gears then since you get the set?

We've sold a few sets and have a set on the race car. We havent had a chance to mess with the race car yet but when we degreed the motor in the stock gears were off a good amount. I havent heard back from anyone that has bought the gears.

I actually have used a few sets of these. After decking the block and resurfacing the head the motor is actually very off. Especially if you are looking to maximum a all motor set up. I been running a set of these for over 10k miles street and track driven. I do valve adjustments every few track events and haven't seen them move or slip. I would highly recommend these. But if you dont know how to degree a motor , please have some1 that knows how help you install and do it properly.
