Stage 4+ cams I've seen run with VCT and got near stock engine vac as well. Just spoke with a mate who has them in his ute and he confirms it.

Mr_4.0 Member 1,096 Member For: 14y 3m 9d Posted 06/04/13 12:54 PM Share Posted 06/04/13 12:54 PM Yes. Shorter torque spread. Less fuel economy. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/43875-atomic-cams/page/6/#findComment-1378109 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TXR05 Member 181 Member For: 13y 10m 14d Gender: Male Location: Brisbane QLD Posted 07/04/13 07:11 AM Share Posted 07/04/13 07:11 AM (edited) So does the 4 change the note at all? Or that only starts with the 4+ cause I'd love to make mine sound lumpy.What about the power band? will that make it higher in the RPM ? Not a big fan of even reving mine to 5500...
