Does anyone know why everyone with n1's always adjusts the exhaust cam with the intake cam? My tuner says its normaly the intake that needs adjustment not the exhaust.


... this might be your problem

your tuner needs to know we have vvl on both intake an exhaust.. just tell him its like a b-series x-cept two vtecs that can turn on simultaneously or together . the higher the activation,the higher the rpm , the high the hp...

Yes he knows that. I meant to say why does almost everyone degree the cams the same for both intake and exhaust. Like you always see +2-2, +4-4 or +5-5 why not 0, -3 or +3, 0 ect...

Because it doesn't make as much power.

Well gues what? Same top end power same drop off 72xx rpms lost some midrang and low end. I'll have the charts up whenever I get them. I was so sure it was the cam timing but now I know it has to be the header. I Tried turning off the knock sensor, that didn't work. I tried different timing and bin file that didn't work. I ended up getting the best results with the same bin we ended with at the dyno last time


BTW Cam timing was at 0/0 today.

Dudeman258 What header were you using when you dynoed?

ssac! Got a "budget" header on the way from Snickers. So tell me why our motors seems to have a problem, and if it is the header, why are our ve's so sensitive? Still baffles me...

Why can't we just have normal childre.....ve's...

I'm in the same boat as you two cause i got n1's cams too and the highest i dynoed was 184whp/139tq.

I dont know. My motor looks brand new inside good compression and good leakdown test. It's just my luck that I cant make the power it should be making with it. I've seen a few ve's make 200+ hp with an ssac header and n1 cams. I'm saving for one of Snickers headers untill then I'm going to try and make this one work. I think I'm going cut it and make it stepped and rebuild the collector.

i tried +2/-5 last week while dynoing snickers' budget header vs my fuji. we put it back to +5/-6 and made more power across the board.
