I run a Zex stage 1 and a Skunk2 cam gear and it's perfect.

I recommending running the same brand gear, cam, and valvetrain. A lot of companies will deny warranty claims if you mix and match.

maybe a 92-95 Civic Si HB... but not a 1999-2000 Si. you'll need much more than just a cam.

That depends on what car the Y8 is in... For instance if its in a 4th gen civic or a crx... Not hard for me to believe due to differances in weaght. I have seen a D16A6 with just I/H/E in a crx HF pull on a 2000 SI... (Didnt win but it was close enough to suprize you!)

well, this Y8 is in a 2K coupe EX. so i am very doubtful that with the cam it will pull on a Si.
