could someone please give me some advice on a set of mivec cams for upgrading evo ix. HKS, Cosworth, Crower, etc.....

 

Cosworth have been showing consistent results, so i picked some up for my own car.

Cheers!

 

nice vids! your car kicks ***. i was looking at the HKS mivec cams. have you heard anything good or bad about them?

 

I've tuned a few sets of them, but they havent been before or after cars. New customers so i cant really say how much theyre helping. Theyre all making great horsepower and torque on the stock turbo.

The only cam that was a bit of a disappointment was the GSC cam, even though they make amazing cams for the evo 8.

The BC 272s also have good results on the stock turbo, same thing like the HKS for a number comparison.

I've been very eager to try the Jun cams, Revmoto will be installing them very soon so we'll be able to do a nice before and after thread. We plan to retune his car and put together some graphs with DLL then install the cams and retune it. Hopefully all within 3-4 hours to make sure the results stay consistent.

Cheers!

 

thanks for all the info. i am probably going to go with the HKS mivec cams. I am new at all of this engine internals stuff. I have all of the bolt on stuff and am eventually wanting a bigger turbo. im trying to take it one step at a time.

FP4R cams for the IX

Forced Performance has a bit of a write up on their site. these are new so there isn't much out there but we are excited to try them as they seem very promising.

I'll install these as soon as they arrive and provide feedback.

My IX put down 348HP/351tq on stock cams 27psi, MBC, TBE, 1000cc inj, 255 walbro, drop in filter, and E85 on a DynoDynamics dyno

A local guy with same mods as me with the addition of GSC 1 cams, AMS FMIC, CAI, GM BCS 27psi with less taper than me put down 380hp/352tq. At the same dyno day he made these numbers.

Stock Evo IX cams are almost exact copies of HKS 272 cams according to Forced Performance.

AMS has a cam shoot-out test in the new turbo mag this month, I believe its a multi month article with part one being this month. Hope they test the new FP Evo IX cams.

 

I just installed cosworth m2's today.. Thanks TTP..

anyways, I can tell the car breaths better.. it seem to help most of the aggressive part of the powerband.

the lope is sick,,

of course mine is a fp green with untuned cams, so I can't say if any gains yet in the butt, but it does feel better up top..
