HKS cams and AMS tune.

First I want to give a big thanks to AMS(Atlantic Motorsports) for doing an excellent job on my car. I had a few things installed this past month there including a shep tranny, HKS 272s MIVEC cams and few other goodies. Well I made a trip down there last night to get my car and watch it get tuned by Mike. I was def. not disappointed at all. The car made 354.9whp and 380.9wtq at 22psi with 93 oct. I'm very happy with the results considering its only 22psi. Before I was running 23-24psi w/ out the cams and the car didnt feel as smooth as it does now w/ the cams at 22psi. I know if I turn the boost up Ill def. be in the 360whp+ range and I can only imagine what the tq. would be. I mean 380wtq on pump gas is nuts!! The car pulls and pulls and doesn't stop and feels like it wants to break loose in a 2nd gear pull. I will post up the graph in a lil bit. But I would like to thank Mike and the crew at AMS for tuning and the install of all the parts, Thanks again. O and did I mention the car pulls like no other I love these cams. I recommend them to anyone that has a IX looking for cams these are the way to go and get it tuned by Mike @ AMS

I'll scan the chart this week to get a better pic:

Sounds pretty awesome. What were your numbers before the cams?

My next batch of upgrades are going to be cams and alky. I'm hoping for over 400whp and torque. Also might be doing a clutch as well.
