Hey guys...
well heres the story.. i blew a head gasket in late november, tore it apart and decided to do rebuild and heads/cam project.
-The heads are getting a fully p/p, milled, comp valve job, new springs seats, guides. I also got crane gold 1.6 rr's, comp springs and lifters, hd timing set. all head work is done by SpeedFreak inc.
-The cam is a comp custom grind w/ 266/262 dur. and .520/525 lift.
-Port-matched intake and exhaust ports.
-exhaust is mac headers 1 5/8.. and ypipe, to hiflow cat, and slp lm.
-slp cai w/ free ram air scoop
-descreened/polished maf
-ported/polish tb
-basic free mods, tb bypass, fra, and fan switch

i was wondering what u guys thought i would be looking at for numbers hp and 1/4 time wise.... thanks guys
ohh yea quick ?'s will my car be too loud lol i loved the sound w/ the lm on stock, but i got pulled over a few times.. lol i love it tho

 

I would guess around 380 horsepower, so many variables though. 1/4 times should be in the low 12's...

 

ttt.....

by the way i am also planning on tunning by pcmforless.com, and getting nittos and 4.10 gears..

 

Yeah I would agree with Rodrigues, about 380 or more depending on how good your heads flow, you get bigger valves too?.
P.S. If your gonna get cam get a CAM, go with a bigger cam!! youll love it and expect to be investing in a 12 bolt in the future

 

ttt....

oh i do have a couple of other questions..
-w/ that cam im getting what does it compare to?

-can i expect a decent gain from the tuning?

-as far as traction goes, i have goodyear gsc's now will i have difficulty?

-would an afpr and pullies lower my times at all and what gains could i expect outa them?

THANKS

 

Are your cam duration values @.050 or seat-to-seat?

 

i say skip the pullies, but thats me

 

I know this is like 10 days since the last post, but whatev..

I would most definetely say tuning is a must, and you should see pretty decent gains from it.

about the pullies, i agree with chesee48, skip em', save your mulah for something else.

Traction problems?.... probably, if not most definitely, and for sure on the track.

I would also say go bigger on the cam. Go big or go home But for real, you should definitely consider it. Most people on this board (not all) who get a mildish cam regret it in a couple month and with they went bigger to begin with.

And yeah, whether this cam, or a bigger one, and epsecially since you have an M6, prepare yourself in the future for a new rear.

Goodluck!!!
