I'm planning to purchase a set of drag cartel cams for my stock 2006 tsx motor and is deciding between 2.2 or 3.2. Im currently on RBC manifold and Type S TB. The car will not hardly see the race track and is only driven on weekends. Any input will be nice.
Need advice on cams

Because Noone really checks and the difference between 13.4mm and 13.8mm is small enough
Because these are advertised specs becsuse they are "advertised" as specs
Because he doesnt even take.the time to list specs for small moves, then it would be too obvious
Because his duration is off by nearly 25 degrees!!
Its.just some numbers customers need to see in order to but.cams.
The actual.specs.from manufactured specs can be different due to the.method.used to measure.
In specs you read valve lift, correct?
You.never see cam.lift.
So specs are relative to What you think the roller ratio.is.
Some say.its 1.75 ,others say.its 1.70, well it makes a big difference What the.number really is.
You see if.Norris.cam.is 0.300 inch cam lift, like the actual cam.in your hands,
Then specs are
0.300 x roller ratio
If you.use the.generic 1.75 then.the specs are
0.525 inches lift
If you assume 1.73 then.its 0.519 inches
So specs accuracy depend on the roller ratio used to calculate them. That is how you can have 2 different people.thinking they are telling you correct specs from the Same set.of cams, ter different numbers.
Of course deception is Also another explanation.but we should give everyone the.benefit.of doubt

You need to read thread again.Same thing I'm thinking.
Always got something bad to say about other brand cams, smh
He asked me to help him chose between 3.2 and 2.2 and Rob started posting about Norris 3, and the op was bummed because they sound sweet ,so I told him, not to worry, they are the Same as 3.2.

Ok,ok.
So Drag Cartel makes a DC4 with 0.570 máx lift , Norris makes a 0.570 and calls it STAGE 5 to get one up on Jeremy... Then he comes up with a STAGE 3 ,almost Same specs with DC3.2 and makes a STAGE 6 ...
So What happened to the STAGE 4? LMAO

Why must you (Nikos) attempt to bash Norris every chance you have? Is it because he holds 2 of the fwd drag racing world records? Is it because he is known around the world? Is it because he is probably one of the smartest at what he does? It seems like every post about Norris you come and give your .02. And attempt to bash him and make him look like a copy cat and that he doesn't deserve the credit. Gtfo man leave the man alone let the man be holy shit its like you have some secret obsession or something. You want to give your .02 well there's mine Nikos let the man live damn....

But his stage 3's have been out way longer than Dc 3.2
And his stage 5 isn't the same as a dc 4..
Who cares what they are called?

By the way. Norris 3s and 5s have been out before Jeremy's and hes never had a 4. So maybe you should get your facts straight!

the 4's were too close to the stage 5's didnt make sense from a business standpoint. Theres nothing to be confused about the stage 3's are a small cam with a profile that makes power. not just copying cams and adding some lift and sending them out.
