^^^ None haha. These are complete drop in results for the cams. Cam timing could yield amazing results with some sr16 cams, but the VET cams are pretty decently optimized. I am not sure I will see the power gains I am looking for with these lower duration cams, so I will be testing the stock cams down the road as well. I also wanna hear the VVL pop, which is a sound you cannot hear with just the intake switching on the vet cams. These cams coupled with a nice high rpm powerband will make this powerband incredibly stout.
When the VET cams switch, the motor just gets a louder intake growl, but it isn't pronounced like the stock cams are. I don't think these cams are really going to hold it back much on my setup, and they spool the turbo really quick. I have thought about trying some 20v cams to see how they like turbo. This will have to wait until the next build though.
This motor did very well considering the miles, abuse, and state of tune. I wasn't really expecting more than 340whp since I detuned it.
