Who is it? Pricing? Looks like warranty is beating around the bush and coming up with BS excuses to not cover it. I was set on Faisal who does a ton of Evo transmissions and I have seen his work, but I don't have a price yet. Let me know!

Sadly that statement is true for a lot of people.More overlap=less cylinder pressure.I was told directly from comp cams that ALL of their cam profiles create more overlap thus reducing cylinder pressure which will net lower power levels.Your basically blowing boost right through the combustion chamber,bypassing it if you will and throwing it out the exhaust but hey,It's your car and I'm not going to say "I told you so".I've already heard of a couple people making more power on stock cams than comp cams.


On a different note.Got my E47 tune loaded and logged.Top end is the same as it's a base tune and running the same amount of timing but low end...wow!pulls a lot harder as it doesn't pull back timing from knock.KR is non existent now.Tyler is having him richen it up a tad and throw more timing in there.She feels great though.

Please forward me to those who made less power with Comp cams. I've actually found information quite the opposite of that.

I'm not worried about power loss regardless. Even though they're "N/A" cams I'm confident I'll see gains.

I don't know where you guys get this sound crap from either lol, I could care less about sound. Hell I'd prefer they don't lope at all honestly

Josuizzle... I was being 100% sarcastic with that statement... hence the facepalm...

Jerry... Talk to gbkglenn, I don't remember the name of the other guy I talked to who lost power putting them in a boosted car. He's taking them out of his car too I think this week, could have gotten them for cheap.

for the eco motors, L61 spoecifically, stock cams will net better power all the way past 400HP then any other cam will. I know a few people in the jbody world who have proven it. People think they can tune for more power with aftermarket cams, just because knowing they put a different part in makes them think its automatically more power.

I have a buddy who drives around a 430HP cavalier on ported head with only valve and springs, all else stock.

I don't understand why people don't listen to me.I am just going to stop helping people I swear to god lol.No more advice from me.You want to do things you way and net less power...so be it.This is a in general statement.I done doing research for this thing we call a "community" and people blow it off.So for now on it's your guys projects,your money,your powerloss,quality loss etc etc.I am simply a troll from here on out.
