Nice Can I ask how much you bought that Hytech header?? And if you have disabled/removed the Power Steering and A/C ??

looks similar to my old b16a2 setup only i ran real hytech, did have bc3+ cams but sold them now (there ok but very overhyped) but i didnt have any headwork at the time, keep us updated how you get on

I bought on Ebay, it was 500$+shipping. I keep A/C and PS it will be a daily driven car.

How do you mean very overhyped? I don't really understand. Can you write it more detailed?
Did you dyno test your old setup?

they are an ok camshaft but maybe just little better than oem itr cam midrange but very steep ramp angles which can cause premature wear of components, i dont have dyno results but i didnt like them in my car from day one (i had oem itr cams before which i prefered), you will need some better springs/retainers and worth putting itr lma's in with bc3+ cams

It's strange that you found ITR cams preferable than BC3+. On US Honda forums they found these cams very good. I hope I will love them.
I will have Rocketmotorsports SL valvetrain, Omnipower high CR valves as well.

I know the Hytech header is about $1300 It also requires removal of A/C and P/S. So, yours is not genuine huh?

agreed.

It's Hytech (F1Spec) copy and you don't need to remove A/C and P/S!
My friend has the same type of header, Rage Hytech copy and he did't take out these. As I know for Highend header you need to remove A/C!
Rage was around 640$ !

i ran rocket gen 2 springs and retainers which several of shattered and some springs literally stuck to the retainers (i dont know if this was due to install error of cams or bad design of springs/retainers but even if cams werent installed correctly the valvetrain should really have still held up and damage ocurred about 1 year after install)

i here the rocket sl version is improved, i also went with bc3+ due to people is u.s rating them but ended up regretting it although lots of people seem happy with them

i know theres exhaust/intake cam combo (different manufacturers) that works incredibly well (superb gains along with reliability) but closely kept secret by the really good engine builders/tuners ( i dont know it but wish i did when choosing my cams)
