from 0 to 40km/h about same as stock cams....but once pass 40kmh....the car just fly as compared to stock cams....rpm meter very fast to touch redline....also travelling at 100 to 120km/h with full load and aircon on i can feel car very responsive i just press a bit so easy to overtake compared to previously....but from what i understand from other website when using ek9 cams on stock b16 must have free flowing exhaust as well as strong air intake(open pod)...my ride already have this as well as extractor with straight thru exhaust and remus muffler....so i suppose it goes well with the cams....really enjoy the upgrade NO regrets...urgghhh...not sure wait till i top up petrol maybe a bit painful.... :D

the difference seems great on your EK4A because the stock cams on the B16A5 is already a detuned version (factory rated at 155bhp) of the manual B16A4 cams..
nevertheless Type-R cams are a good match for the EK4A with IHE done-up.. yes if tuned properly the midrange is even better than most stage 3 cams like Jun3 or TodaC.. :wink:
