This guy is getting it tight for being genuine and only posting up what's happened. I think some folk need to cut a bit of slack. Differing engines with differing histories / parts will respond differently to such a big hike from standard to performance cams and the ECU could well have been shitting it's self.
As you say though, can only see what happens with Ricks come the weekend!
Looking at the fuel and timing maps when Daves car was plugged into the Nistune software first time, it was very uneven and wouldnt have been performing anywhere near like it could. Greg said there was areas in both maps that would have left big flat spots lower down.
which means you have pretty much max torque at any RPM.
if you had max torque at 2000rpm then nothing at 5k. putting your foot down at 5k wouldnt give you any pull. so the fact that you have max torque through the range is great. it'll pick up and go soon as your foot is planted
The cams should be ground spot on (well +- 10th of a degree but thats of no real relevance).
But, thats always assuming the data we are provided when we get the cylinder head samples is correct (we only recieve the head and what angle the cams are positioned at as std).
16 deg does seem to be a long long way off though. If anyone has accurate lift at TDC figures for the std setup then Ill double check with the data we have.
We always aim to get the timing exactly right, its not in our interest to have cars making less power than they should!!
Damn, completely forgot about the stickers again!!!
Has anyone got a spare set of std cams we could have?
The original samples we used were returned to the customer and we'd like to verify the lobe/keyway positions again to see if thats where the problem has come from.
