BigMoscow Member 45 Member For: 8y 7m 26d Posted 17/06/16 02:07 AM Author Share Posted 17/06/16 02:07 AM It will be the atomic stage 4 cam. You are right, it is not. But they are not expensive to buy or to install. Plus it will help response, lag and help me reach my goals easier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's going to help response and consequencly power. Maxing duration/lift with out exceeding overlap the PCM can control is going to provide benefit over stock cams.

We'll soon find since Turboknapp has a set of bumpity bump sticks ready to go into the blue meanie. BA Non FPV have a set offset between the intake and exhaust cam. BF and FG have dual VCT so cam position relative to each other can be changed in relations to each out (ie overlap) Technically it's Exhaust Cam position relative to Intake.

BigMoscow Member 45 Member For: 8y 7m 26d Posted 17/06/16 04:03 AM Author Share Posted 17/06/16 04:03 AM This will be more the fast enough for everything I want to do. There red will be suspension upgrades needed but I should be able to get into the 10s and be pretty competitive on the track. Plus it will still look stock enough to make an occasional rice burner/hsv owner and maybe even bike owners saying WTF later on I might invest in a bottom end see what numbers I can hit.
