Our sponsor, afterhourz racing...head over to his forum, better yet call him, i heard hes been really busy

NXLude · 07-23-2003, 09:59 PM

my friend ordered them from there and they havent sent him an email or answered there phones, its been about 2 wks

They have to get them from crower, so crower will send it to him after about 3 weeks.....thats just how long it takes....worth the savings

msn · 07-25-2003, 05:53 AM

Hello, is there anybody else? I have been trying to call them for like two weeks and no one ever picks up!!! I even sent them emails and got no response.

from the keyboard of malken00 himself:

"they're really swamped right now"

ok not really from his keyboard but ya get the point

NXLude · 07-25-2003, 09:59 PM

Ive read an artical that said crower cams did very little....

NXLude · 07-27-2003, 08:33 PM

ive seen quite a few dynos that say otherwise.....

nsmcgirt · 07-28-2003, 03:31 PM

Nxlude ive read an artical in super street. that said other wise.

nsmcgirt · 07-28-2003, 03:33 PM

here is the artical http://www.importtuner.com/tech/0306it_ppprelude/

Check it out i want the cams the work too. but for the price i wont get them

NXLude · 07-28-2003, 07:34 PM

1- Hyper Ground System $ 100.00
2- Crower Cam, spring & sprockets Package $ 1224.71
3- Holley Fuel Pressure Regulator $ 159.99
MSRP total: $ 1484.70

Conclusion: A VTEC controller would have really helped out the cams, but since we opted to get additional fuel by using the Holley regulator we were not able to adjust VTEC. Adding an AFC or AFR would have really gain more mid range power.

Ill give you a helpful interpitation......"threw in cams and other crap parts with NO FUEL MANAGEMENT and tried to gain power".....unfortunately you dont make any power without tuning, so that article is quite decieving.....first they are stage one cams, second they threw them in with no fuel mods......

Read this....he has 195 to the wheels (pulled in 3rd gear so the #s are low......and he is sporting crowers......talk to satan srv too, he is seeing 216hp with crowers also......there are many of them around...so dont be fooled....no matter what the ricey mags say, crower makes power.....

alphajesse · 07-28-2003, 08:09 PM

And um... we played with a B&M FPR, which did almost nothing for the car, because it is one of the poorest ways to tune fuel... If we weren't total retards, we might have been able to make some actual power for the car.
I don't think stg2 cams are any more expensive than the stg1 from crower, so that is pure idiocy in cam selection. Worried about emmisions? get stg2a - stock idle lobes.

NXLude · 07-28-2003, 08:15 PM

^^^exactly.....and if you want the most for your money, get the big stage 2s

CTPRELUDE · 07-28-2003, 09:46 PM

The cams would also benefit more from higher compression pistons along with fuel management.

SK Honda 7 · 07-28-2003, 10:13 PM

I have stage 2 on my car and i passed emissions without any problems.

I still havent tune the car.... WHY ...cause no one in NY knows what they are doing. and i dont want someone to F0K up my car. So until i tune it... i will drive it as is.

DO NOT BUY FROM AFTERHOURZ.... seems like they went out of BUSINESS.
