I got it from EA Autoworks, Pipercam billet camshaft. Not Jasma regrinded cam. PM Drexchan for more details on the cost of the cam.

I need to get a set of cams that are made for my car right?
Or can use any cams on any engines?
And does regrinding the stock cam can make it better? More hp?
Thanks!

guys, correct me if im wrong.

adj.cam pulley 'able to manipulate' the cam timing, hence the effect will be similiar to changing a wilder cam? how an engine with stock camshaft can benefit from adj cam pulley then? sorry if off topic

Bro...

Adjustable cam pulley can alter the "timing" but not the "duration" and "lift". So the main function is to shift the powerband (whether further up/lower down) and not really increase power.

It des increase power a bit, but not as drastic as changing to a wilder camshaft.

Hi Izso, just wondering if your engine has the capabilities of the mivec or vtec to change to the wilder camshafts after a preset RPM? Or is it 260/288 all the way? Thanks!

Nah. It's an archaic 4G15 SOHC. it's 260/288 all the way.

I hate to dig up an old post but Izso! I need to ask you, what is your cam timing set at currently? And where did you set your powerband to? I'm just curious to know haha.

Uh.. cam timing? Do you mean cam angle? If yes then it was at retard 2 degrees when I was using my auto GB. Powerband was between 3k to 5k rpms. Now with manual I'm using 0 degrees but it's completely useless at 0. I have to fiddle with it and try advancing or retarding. Haven't really had to time to mess with it.

Whoops yeah I meant cam angle. Okay thanks for the info! I'm thinking of saving up to get one myself.
