Hks BOV and cams

Anyone with the VTA Hks bov and cams have problems with stalling? I have the HKS BOV VTA and no problems with idle or stalling, im afraid if i get GSC 272/264 cams this may change. If anyone has this set up or similar plz feel free to post.

Whether you're having problems with idle or stalling or not, you're still running rich between shifts which is hurting your performance. Just recirculate.

I suppose that makes sense if the intake valve is open longer, but if you are going to spend the money on cams you can probably afford to get an AFC or similar to re-align your fuel curves.... I agree with the others on one thing for sure.... recirculate your BOV, I know it sounds bad ***, but you are getting NO performance gains (actually slight performance loss because you tend to run RICH in between shifts, not to mention stalling tendencies) from the BOV being VTA. Get a decent air intake and the sound will be almost as cool, and you will like the performance. Make SURE to do your fuel tuning with a good wideband!
