I wouldn't trust the stock retainers, but they may hold up. What cams?

you could increase your redline with upgraded springs and retainers, but those cams will stop making power before that... it would really be a waste of time unless you upgrade to cams that will make power up that high in the rpm band.

(i had CTR's that peaked at 8400 on an lsvtec)

ill do some research on turbo cams, but the only reason im increasing rev limit is cause of the turbo thats all......i mean it doesnt help that im running a stock gsr ECU so i can only go to 8K anyways i know ican rev the ITR head a little higher say 84-8600. thanks for the info..on to honda-tech
