The power that it made the the GT35 is extremely impressive IMO though...

Idle is choppy with the 280 exhaust and the 750's ... but not bad


We are working on the intake cam, Think we will have something to put into this car by late in the week. HKS has no idea when the intake cam will be out for this car. I can tell you however its bigger then an 8 cam. Cant wait for HKS .... stay tuned ..

Any chance you could overlay a Evo 8 graph with a similuar set-up. I would like to see how the curves compare and how much the new MIVEC head helps.

Great stuff and thanks for sharing!

Is that pump gas or race?

I meant the power that the cam gave over the stock orientation.

Actually 470WHP with the limited amount of mods this IX has is still quite an achievement, even if done on race gas.

As far as modifications I believe this IX is running-
TBE
Boost Controller
750cc Fuel Injectors
280 Exhaust Cam
GT35R Turbo Kit
Flash

That is pretty impressive, especially since the GT35R Turbo really wakes up at boost levels of 28PSI an up. At those levels, I could see this IX making well over 500WHP as is. Now add in a Intake Cam, Race FMIC and piping, and some more tuning. We could possibly see some really astounding numbers.

I was wondering if there is any complications in running just an exhaust cam in the IX?
Anything that could damage the engine? Also how is the idle with 280s on the exhaust side?
