Kelford Cams | Upgrade Camshaft | Honda Civic Type R | K20C1 | 2015+
In the world of high-performance automotive engineering, few names carry the weight and legacy of Kelford Cams. Founded in 1968 by Norm Kelly & Ron Rutherford (Kel-Ford) in Christchurch, New Zealand. Kelford Cams began as a humble engineering camshaft regrinding workshop, catering primarily to local hot rodders with a passion for speed and performance to international powerhouse.
Kelford Cams for Honda's K20C1 powerplant come in 3 specifications; Drop-In, Stage 1 and Stage 2.
Drop-In: 258°/268° drop-in cams for the K20C1 engine found in the Civic Type R Turbo (FK2, FK8 and FL5). These cams are designed to maximise the limitations of the OEM valve spring in street/track day cars. Cam profiles designed to be kinder to valvetrain to allow more valvetrain safety when adding additional boost. Good mid-range to higher rpm gains.
Suits OEM turbo or bolt-on turbo upgrade (48-55mm) with a re-flash of stock ECU. Maintains smooth idle. Must retain OEM rpm limit with OEM valve spring. Primary exhaust lobe spec: 244° / 9.9mm
Stage 1: 272°/280° cams for the K20C1 engine found in the Civic Type R Turbo (FK2, FK8 and FL5). These cams suit street/track day cars, engines making 450hp+, suits 54-66mm turbo upgrade. When fitting the Kelford Cams Stage-1 Camshaft you will experience an increase in mid-high rpm power. Primary exhaust lobe spec: 256° / 9.9mm
Stage 2: 282°/284° racing cams for the K20C1 engine found in the Civic Type R Turbo (FK2, FK8 and FL5). These cams suit motorsport applications such as circuit racing, roll racing and drag racing, professionally built engines making 700hp+ and suits 64mm+ turbo. Primary exhaust lobe spec: 258° / 10.0mm
NOTE: If upgrading to Stage-1 or Stage-2 cams, a valve spring upgrade is required. For high lift and up to 9000rpm Kelford Cams recommend KVS279-BT, available HERE.
