Ouch,

Loosing all that power under the curve where the car is driven most is hardly worth a peak increase of 9rwhp.

It will feel better from the ass dyno perspective as now it has a more "peakie" power curve due to it making LESS power at lower RPM. Ie now what you feel is the hole you created in the power curve not so much the power "increase".

Theoretically you should have been able to adjust the caming in the other direction to create MOPRe power under the curve atthe expense of a little top end power, yeilding a smaller number on the top of the page but a Faster vehicle. Cam timing for improved bottom end results generally assists in turbo spool up time as well Smile




I love Theoreticals Wink, seriously though the changes it made to the curve wasn't really worth it as far as the general curve ended up, BUT the question was, can the curves be moved around with cam changes, and yes it can, whether or not it's detrimental to the overal curve is another story.

I'm sure things would have changed with more boost.

It was a stock sequential setup, they make boost off idle Smile
