Ok, i have an evo IX with almost every bolt-on there is and a mail-in flash, now I am thinkin of gettin a n hks exhaust camshaft and cam gear, now i don't know too much about cams, so my question i without getting retune, how much whp can i expect to gain, and which set should i get (272,262,280), i usually use as daily driver and sometimes i take it out to the track, i like that make a difference that i can feel.

 

if you do the cam and gears you should get a re-tune to get the most out of your upgrade

 

You won't get anything with just adding a cam and cam gear and no retune, and you certainly don't want to add those and set the cam gear to anywhere besides 0 without a tune. That wouldn't make any sense. Also, even with a retune, we've seen no proof of a single exhaust cam making a noticable difference on a IX. I think you'd get more from a custom flash (road tune or dyno tune) than from $500 spent on a cam+gear.

 

Yea, it seems that the IX isn't benefiting from the exhaust cam - especially from our dyno day.

yea thanks for the advice, but i can't get a custom tune because of location, well any way i like my ix right now jus thought the exhaust cam will help, because i saw a dynoflash case study and it looked pretty good

 

I didn't see any Dynoflash case studies that showed gains SPECIFICALLY from the cam. The IXs make incredible power on their own. Which one did you see? Also, where do you live? You don't have your location filled out.

 

I seen this thread.

I was going to try it , I don't see how it could hurt. People mix up there durations on there 8's, so why can't we on our 9's

 

Didn't Turbo Trix get something like 15 - 20 whp from just the exhaust cam ??

 

That is what I was thinking.
Someone on here has had to of had there 9 dynoed with an exhaust cam

 

Many people have and haven't seen noticable gains. TT saw noticable gains on a GT35R-equipped IX.

 

I live in trinidad, its in the caribbean

Yep..... I am getting that 280 for sure . Might have to take the avc-r out of my GTi

 

post results before and after asap

 

Sorry bro but it will be an after.
I was doing everthing at once.
My local dyno is a 2 wheel, and Buschur is my closest 4 wheel, but he is an hour and a half away.
Buy the looks of the searched thread you posted, most wanted picked up 15 to 20 whp. So I am thinking it can't be a bad thing..... how could it
