Skunk2 Tuner Stage 2 Camshafts – Honda B16/B17/B18 VTEC Engines
The Skunk2 Tuner Stage 2 Camshafts are designed for enthusiasts seeking the perfect balance between street drivability and high-performance gains. Engineered for Honda B16, B17, and B18 VTEC engines, these camshafts deliver an impressive 15–20 horsepower increase while retaining factory idle quality and low-speed emissions compliance.
Each camshaft is precision-ground to optimize power and torque for engines equipped with free-flowing intake/exhaust systems, higher compression ratios, and upgraded valvetrain components. The result is a dramatic and satisfying VTEC crossover with a pronounced surge as the engine transitions from primary to secondary cam lobes.
Developed using Skunk2’s race-proven valvetrain technology, these cams provide exceptional reliability, high-RPM stability, and the aggressive performance expected from Skunk2’s engineering pedigree.
