I was wondering if you have had the oppurtunity to tune a HKS 272 int / 264 exh car?

You read a lot of crap on these boards, I was just wondering if you have any 1st hand knowledge of this set-up rollig accross you dyno.

If you have,

1. How is the power delivery & where?
2. Would you recommend this set-up?
3. What cam gear settings were they installed at?

We did in fact tune one car with that combo and it worked well. Very little difference, power output-wise, from the more traditional 264/272 combo. It did idle well at -2,-2 which was a pleasant surprise. However, we still need to test more examples of that combo before coming to any solid conclusions. Doing one car doesn't really cut it...

Cheers,

Shiv, I will have this setup for the Dynoday at Dyno4mance. How long do you think it will take to dial it in? I've heard that it offers more low to mid power versus the other setups.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Don't mean to hi-jack the thread by any means but, same question as WOT but with a 272/272 combo ?

Ive got this setup in my car right now; hopefully have some results for you guys soon. The idle is like that of a stage 1 car; it is in no way lumpy. Cam gears are set a -2/-2. I suspect the power delivery will be no different than any the other setups we've tested, but we'll have to see!

Which setup - straight 272's?

272 in 264 ex

Have you driven it?


Maybe I should have phrased the question differently, asking where is the meat of the power? If 272's are peaky & you loose some mid range, the 272int / 264 exh combo gives you the most power @ ........

I am looking forward to hear your results. Will your tune / mods still consist of a TB w/cat, cam gears & xflash?

lambtron

Yes, I did the install on friday, been driving it all week with a baseline 1+ map. Feels strong

My mods are full 1+ (cam gears, cams, dumpback exhaust, xflash) II'll try to test the setup both on the flash and an xede(race gas)

Please conduct a 91 octane ps check first!

What cams were you running before your current cam set-up?

Besides, your original stage 1 dyno plot looks strong compared to various post's in stg 1+ form with xflash only.

Your 255 peak ps vs a ps of 268, & ps 272....If I remember correctly, those 2 mentioned posts had 264/272 cam combo.

Our cars usually have R&D parts on and off them. Brian is doing more R&D here and will have good basemaps for 91/93/100 ect.

Sorry to but in, but the values Vishnu put out are in HP...if you want "ps" just multiply hp figure by 0.985

IMO, no matter what HKS combo you use, the power results will be very similar. The lift is identical on both intakes cams (higher) and both exhaust cams (lower), and 8 degrees of duration isn't going to effect power that much.... At least that's what a little Vishnu bird from Tejas and I think.

Uh, that TEJAS, son. IMHO, 8 degrees is significant over the stock cams. All I have to say is, 272/272 is ON from the word GO (hold on your cowboy hat)! Any HKS combo is a significant improvement over stock.


Why do you guys want to tune out the lope of the cams? That is so G-A-Y! Show the guy at the light you have *****. That way you can attract more of the overzelous Mustang punks.
