Cam Timing Mod Question?
I am working on a 99 SL1 i bought just to drive to and from work and now it has become a door stop since i bought a new car. So it has since become a toy.
Here is what i have already done : Bored : 82mm to 82.5 (20 over) Weisco Pistons Stroke : Stock Head : DOHC Port and polish Rods : Scat Moly Cam : Custom Grind By Colt Cams Clutch : Exedy stage 2 clutch Trans : Phantom Grip LSD Fuel Pump : Walbro 255lph Tune : By Hypertech Header : OBX Now, i had a friend who "SAYS" he is a saturn gooroo but who knows. He was suggesting if i stay naturally aspirated that I go with some "OBX" adjustable cam gears. Now im not one to play with timing to much if it is a naturally aspirated car. All my turbo cars i would retard timing if need be. What im wanting to know is if this is advisable, has any one done this mod already? and if so is it worth the $$$ and many degrees to advance? |
This level of horsepower increase definitely falls into the area of sw2cam's expertise, but if I was going to wring the ultimate amount of power out of my engine, and hang the cost, then adding adjustable gears to the mix would definitely be a plus.
I have no idea at all as to the cost, again, I defer to the experts who have "been there" on this board. Good luck |
