Debating Cams: Input?

[BoostinIX]

Debating Tomei 256's. Don't want to mess with VCT/head internals (read: Don't want 260/272's)
It's been pretty receptive to power-adders thus far. What am I looking at with these added:

Curious how much the band will shift right vs up, given my setup.

Also curious what HP gains would be estimated.


Not a lot of people using this turbo/setup, and Tomei sucks for getting information. Input is appreciated. /flamesuitON

I dunno man, ur power is coming on at the end of 4k already. How much more right are you willing to go?
How much power are you after?
What are your plans with the vehicle

Your turbo is pretty much out of breath as it is, so why shift the power band and delay response? Get a race gas/e85 tune and crank the boost, you'll be happy.

[ultimateirving]

His numbers are pretty good for 93.


I think with how built his engine is e85 would melt face!

Honestly you'll probably gain power everywhere with a small cam like that and VTC still active.

Turbo looks like it spools pretty slow, but dynojets suck at showing spool. Do you have a boost controller on it?

If you want more power down low, switch to E85 and spike that thing to 25-30psi as fast as it will go, then let the gate open (if you have an electronic boost controller that is). This is usually an easy way to increase spool without the risk of knock like 93 octane.

Do it. Its your only chance of catching whorehey
