Subject: MR2 SC: TRD 272 cams are in (part 2)Driving impression
Hi Guys
Now that its cooled down abit I decided to have another drive with the
272 cams in and with a bit more ignition advance, about 11-12ATDC.
The cams really can be felt in a BIG way after 5000rpm, it screams to
the rev limiter (7200rpm) like nothing else Ive ever driven, torque from
about 3500-5000rpm is about the same, under 3500rpm there has been a bit
lost.
My impression is that the 272s in the SC would make a great track cam,
but for the road, I really miss the off idle torque. Like I said in my
first post, I think the E51 tranny is a bit too widely spaced to run
this cam, it really needs the broad spread of torque that the standard
cams give.
Seeing that this is going to be my road car, Im thinking of whether its
worth it to keep using the cams. I was thinking that using the larger
Blitz pulley may get more torque back below 3000rpm. Or possibly I need
to run my adjustable fuel pressure regulator to richen up the bottom
end.
All in all, I really prefer the low down torque than the top end scream,
after all its not the most tuneful exhaust note Ive ever heard. I now
feel that the stock cams with a bit of head porting and higher boost may
be the answer.
Im going to get a dyno run as soon as I can, just so I can see if more
fuel is needed. If its running lean that may explain the lack of torque
below 3000rpm. Then again the last time I had it dynoed I was getting
about 10.5:1 Air/fuel mixture, so there should be plenty of fuel for the
new cams
