Honda Civic Camshafts

Web Cam's initial stage of K20A camshafts, the AS1's, produce more horsepower and torque in comparison to the OEM Type R cams, all the way until we lift off at 9200 rpm. At .050-inches of valve lift, Web Cam's billet cams have 40 degrees of additional duration on the intake side and 37 degrees on the exhaust. Compare this to the even less aggressive RSX Type S cams and you'll see a world of difference.
