hi,

Do i need adjustable cam pully such as hks when installing S1 cam? My mech told me i need to get a set of adjustable cam pully as my car idle is like sh*t after the cam installed... or is there any thing missed out by him?

 

no cam gears are needed and if you get evo 8 cams you will have no problem putting them in a 7. same engine minus the antilag setup.

 

is there any setting on the stock cam gears?

 

You have only to remap your ECU

 

i bought a set of hks adjustable pulley instead of remap ecu as there's no tuner to help on remap the ecu. Wat setting I should set for the hks pulley?

Thanks.

 

Just use your stock gears, an adjustable cam gear is not a replacement for a tune.

 

i was told i can either remap or use the adjustable pulley to "fix" this issue. I'm hoping to use the adjustable pulley to resolve the idling issue first so I can have my car back while i getting my standalone ecu early next year.

 

i'm planning to set the cam gears to -2 in/-1 ex. will that improve the idling?

 

idle will improve if you decrease the overlap, but any means.
so advancing the exhaust, or retarding the intake.

tuning for power/response is another matter.
my kelfords 272 made the best response with +5/+3, but we lost top end (which i'm happy with)
