Can actually broaden the power band if taken advantage of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm very interested in how yours will go, are the stage 3 cams duo phase cams? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stage III cams are a baby cam and are not duo phased. I believe that the duo phased start with their stage IV cams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By using the Haltech, I have better control of the cams than most and we also think that there are gains to be had by playing with them.. We're looking to throw a lot of cam advance and timing into the engine from idle until it hits boost, then we'll phase it out. this should really help with the bottom end and get to to spool quicker. After which, we'll start to retard them for top end gains. We had a play with the cam timing the other day and we easily give the car a nice lope at idle, and set it to phase out at 1200rpm so that it still purrs when doing 60 km/h in 6th gear.. It was really cool watching this being done, but I am really looking forward to setting up the antilag.

My tuner doesn't want me to use cams in mine with the standard computer so I guess I'll stick with a standard top end at the moment. Got out the bottom end back and assembled it, I managed to squeeze the windage tray on there too with the main stud nuts getting a full grip so pretty happy with that, next step is an atomic oil pump I think, need a new sump as my old one had a crooked helicoil put in it and never stopped leaking! got my heart set on a gtx42 size turbo now, I'd like to squeeze 600rwkw out of this on e85 but if I don't, no biggie. But a "fun size" turbo only got some quick pics today also bought a snort plenum too during the week, mounts on the standard runners. I'll polish it over the weekend too. originally wanted a cpc one piece plenum but he doesn't make xr6 ones at the moment. happy Easter guys!

Just a dummy up, still waiting on atomic oversize head washers (on back order) then oil pump and sump. Then the engines done! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
