What cams for -2 and -2 timing? Is that for 264/264 as well? Please circulate the stage 1+map on the group email for this trip.

I sent out the 91 Octane Stage 1+ map to the group email list this morning.
I spoke with Shiv today and he confirmed the use of this map after cam installation until he gets here to do the 93/94 maps. The timing profile in our current 93 octane Stage 1 (+cam gears) map is too aggressive above 5500 RPMS for the increased VE provided by the new cam profiles.

With the stage 1+... Is it a good idea to get an open air element or K&N panel filter for dyno tune? Any gains? Or is the intake not required for stock turbos?

Unless I'm mistaken, the only other two engine events which are synchronized with the cams are the spark and the firing of the injectors.

The piston motion is synchronized with the cams. And neither piston motion nor cam motion can be controlled by the XEDE, so we need a mechanical means to adjust cam phasing relative to piston motion.

I guess i'll just put a brand new stock filter. Anyways, another stupid question. The restrictor pill stays out for stage 1+ correct?

Henry Hirschel and Boost-up!,
meanmud and KK are the POCs for coordinating the January East coast tuning event. I believe that we are currently fully with 10 people for the 31st.
You can PM either of them and ask to be put on a stand-by list in case anyone on the primary list bails between now and 31 Jan.

Hi guys,
I'm going to try to get a hold of the guys at AA again tomorrow. I'm going to try to see if the dyno can be rented for two days instead of one. I'll let ya know...

Shiv:
That, sir, is an excellent idea. I'm sure my fellow members at Club WRX would be very interested as well.
I wont post anything till you folks clear things with AA.
So, do EVO and Rex geeks get along or what?
