Thread: Took Baby to the Dyno again

I dont know why people would say that cam gears are a waste of time and money, It's false information to give. 0 -2 is the way to go with those headers you have. GL, with your goal,

eh we'll see what happens in the years to come, i dont plan on gettin rid of the car or setup i have.. i will keep upgrading till i reach the max that the stock 2.0 can put out.. i am thinking of gettin some springs an retainers next year also.. but like i said we'll see what happens..

me an my friend have been really thinkin hard about making a 2.3 setup like cory.. not tryin to copy him but man, he has a really impressive build an his numbers are right where i'd want to be in a few years..

i havent actually seen anyone Gain power from the cam gears, just move the power band down in the rpms..

I have seen cars make more with cam gears and Tq also, I have seen and done many cars with cam gears and all have gained from it. Look into it.

ok sorry happynole but im gonna borrow your graph here..




as you can see, he made nearly the same hp/tq i did, i believe was tuned, had cam gears and switched the cams @ 5600 instead of 5200 (like i am)

granted his numbers are in sae and he prolly had a competent dyno OP.

thats just an example.. im sure i can find more if need be..

Trust me he had the wrong cam adjustment, did he just drop them in and dynoed like that, or did he gradually adjust each cam. I do not see how he could have come to the conclusion that 5+,-5 was his best setup, unless he went by what was suggested on the forum? eBay headers atleast the ones known of do not like too much overlap.

Oh and next thing his graph is showing the results from a header swap not cam gears

and it also shows how wrong his settings are that it peaks way to early for n1.

yeah im not sure what all was done tbh, but happynole usualy does things right..

i showed the graph because thats what his car was making with the ssac and n1 cams with cam gears.. just pretend you dont see the asp header run..

yep your right on gio,graph is showing the broader power band of asp header.hell my sr16 cams hold power up higher than happynoles n1's in that graph(props to happynole still)gio give it up its pointless lol...you the man though gio,props to your times

thats just cause the cam switch point on the ssac was too high..
