im doing what kungfugirl stated. im turbo and i plan on using ecuflash and evoscan sence they both work for my car. i plan on tuning it tomorrow after i get outa work. i found out that, it is the most reasonable way to go ONLY if you know how to tune or have somebody that will tune for you.
what kind of gains could a turbo guy get outa replacen the cam with a 248/248 or maybe even a little higher.(with a conservitive tune) im tryen to figure out if its worth spenden more money

 

Since I am so late to this thread, my only thoughts are:

Remember, timing is everything (re. SAFC vs Emanage).

And rememberi f you are getting too aggressive of a cam, you will need some sort of valve spring upgrades, to prevent float.

 

Ask us and we will tell you what you need. IF our cam is not going to fit your needs I will tell you, believe me. Otherwise there are folks on here giving advice who have never run a Cam for RRM or RPW and have no turbos. They are steering you where?????????? I don't know. THink about it.

Thanks ROCK, I should probably get in touch with you soon about that so I can figure it out before I order all of the other stuff from you.

 

No offense, but if you are simply after sheer gains invest in a turbo. With this extremely aggressive NA setup you'll find yourself in somewhat uncharted waters and may end up having to spend your way out. Nevertheless, whatever you do find out will surely help the community so if you've got the heart go for it.

 

By the way, I still have the recipe for 10.5 to 1 compression pistons. When you call, I can explain.

ROAD/RACE

 

Awesome, that is what I am talking about ROCK. Expect a call hopefully tomorrow (Thursday sometime, my name is Chris so I will ask for you)

 

you should be able to find the specs for the RPW cams over on the mirage boards. all i know off the top of my head is the stage one mirage cam is 258/248 with .371/.360 lift and the lancer stage one is slightly less aggressive than that.

 

I am AIMING for around a 256/256 or so.

 

forgot to add the specs for the mirage and lancer are identical after stage one.
