does anyone know if integra r cams will work with the k24?

sauceman

They don't.

Are you sure about that? We have the same head as the RSX-S, which I've used ITR cams in (in addition to the Type-R intake manifold).

i heard it may work with minor engine work.. i heard it from somewhere on this board a while ago when this question came up. i do not remember however what exactly was said..

Hmm Id like to see something happen hehe

I can easily swap in the ITR cams and IM again. The trouble is that Hondata has no reflash for this application when it comes to sticking these in a K24. They had a readily available app when it came to swapping these into a K20. Don't expect them to make one for the K24 with ITR cams and IM. There are a ton of guys that have this on their K20, but it's a different market than the TSX following.

I believe somebody tried this swap and it did not work. I have no idea, that's just what they said.

They are a direct bolt in.

But:
- The TSX Exhaust cam both high and low lobes are bigger than the ITR exhaust
- The TSX intake cam has a bigger small lobe and a smaller big lobe than the ITR intake.

So - you might surmise swapping in the ITR intake cam might improve the high cam power.

So we tried it and lost power everywhere under 7000 rpm.

After a lot more cam and intake testing we have determined that a race header must be in place before any cam change will make power.

I have a lot of respect for the Honda and the cam profiles they have developed for the TSX. They are very good.

Is anyone working on a race header? I haven't seen any info on the boards.

does a race header mean no cat? coz that would mean non-streetable

That won't stop many of us.

Toda, are you listening?

SOOOO Hondata what your saying is TSX cams are better than ITR cams??? AND that an RSX type S might make power from our cams?
