^^All we changed was cams so he's still on stock valvetrain, and No we ran it right up with no tick noise

 

^^uhh bump for what I answered his question?

 

Hes jacking up his post count

 

Did you bleed the lifters?

 

oddly enough againts most of what is seen here on this forum we did not bleed the lifters however not all installs are the same we got a break and it was a simple swap i imagine that if we had done the valvetrain then I would have bled them....

 

Awesome. Youll love them cams. I run these on my IX.

 

nice work def interested in what numbers you make.

 

numbers to be posted tomorrow

 

holy manifold batman! what manifold is that? Beautiful looking motor

 

its the invidia tubular. thank you!

 

The cams are a great option for that turbo, also doesn't require picking up a set of springs

 

Does these cam require to be dyno tuned in order to gain the benefits or can you just slap them on?

 

well... take the results for what they are worth but I went in there and made 305whp/295tq as a baseline pull with all the modifications but with a tune for everything but the cams on 91 octane. Tuned for all mods on 93 octane I left with 350whp/310tq at 23 psi. It feels like a quick 350whp (not sure if the dyno reads low). What I am really happy with is the driveability of the car now, and also the mid range power of this car is awesome.


Going to run a compression test on Monday to find out if the motor needs a rebuild any time in the near future. There are also no boost leaks whatsoever.

 

^^^for the 23 psi its not bad remember I was running 26 peaking at 28Psi on 91oct, I dunno why he didn't tune for more maybe 25psi remember it does have head studs, but as long as the car is healthy and your happy then its all good.
