Cams question......
Ok heres the thing, I want my car to be a little quicker but i cant afford the turbo kit i'm peiceing together quite yet coz i'll be getting new driveshafts etc too.......
I really want to put a set of ITR cams in my B16a2....My freind will re-map the ecu for me but i'll ideally need to raise the limiter to 8700rpm (like the ITR coz thats were those cams 'drop off')
I can get the cams resonably cheap, problem is i cant afford the valve springs aswell and there are no ITR ones going anywhere local (scrapyards etc)
Will i be ok on stock valvesprings or is it really that common/likely for valve float on the stock springs to occur? or is it just a 'saftey measure'?
It would only be for a few months........
Thanks for any help........Sorry if its a dumb question i just dont wanna be spending loads on cams when they'll be getting removed and sold soon anywayz

Do not raise the rev limit if you can't upgrade the springs. I haven't upgraded my springs, but I keep the rev limit at 8100 with my CTR cams. Wait until you can do everything right the first time or just keep the rev limit at stock.
