No way!?!?! You are having some stock cams reground for performance? SWEET!

Let us know how it turns out and what it costs for everything.

So are you only regrinding the VTEC lobes?

Holy Shia! Even better!!! Brand spanking new cams, wow! So which company will be working on making these new cams or is that hush hush information?

I know the TL has a higher red line than the Accord but is there any reason these cams would or would not work with the j30a engine? Accord red line is 6,300, TL red line is what, 6,800?

Oh man, I'm getting pumped just thinking about new cams.

Awwwhh Bnut you found Snook's secret project. I was planning to break the news to to the SHO members as soon as I get these cams in my car (J/K) The ETA on these cams is one month for development + shipping time between the U.S. and Europe and back. Yup, these guys that'll be working on the cams have done work on those famous exotic European cars (Ferrari). I have to hand it to Snook, bro you are very resourceful.

LOL that made me laugh so hard... Mike and Jake were at the SEMA show with me when I talked to the guy about the cams. They told us the work of these guys is unreal! They are astounded by their work. When I asked for the name, they told me, but I don't remember the name. Maybe Mike or Jake does. Mikes friend was with him, that has a Civic and they told him some results they have gotten with these new cams and he wants one now Says it is not a big outfit, but no one compares with the quaility and results with new billet cams like they do.
Were about a month away

They just called me Says they are almost complete. Just finishing up and they will be shipped out in a few days. Has to go though customs and stuff, and should be here in a couple weeks.

This place is totally amazing. They do all kinds of specialty work. They have a new twin turbo Porche that they designed VTEC cams for....

I can't wait to get these cams in and get the DYNO done
