bro....u dun mind can help me 2 ask ur mech wats the valve clearance he set?n watz the cam pulley degree he set?i juz hope it can solve my car prob>>>/
if u r using pipercam (which i doubt, probably a fake?)..then it wont, unless u using a matspeed or rpw cam, THERE IS A BIG DIFFERENCE,eventho its a 4g13 mate :stupid:
LOL .. Yeah, maybe mine's a fake then.
What engine / car are u running on, by the way? If it's not a 4G13, then u cakap banyak buat apa? :stupid: Go play with your bigger engine or something and leave us to our small toys. LOL
no need to say much,as i know u like to put more flame to such a topic (u quiting car modification if im not mistaken?).i do talk based from previous experienced, how bout u if install matspeed/rpw cam for 4g13 and give some opinion, don't simply give out conclusion saying no power can be extract from a 4g13 by changing to an aftermarket camshaft, unless u using pipercam which claimed a performance cam?![]()

to say a camshaft plays a small role, this one...hmm...ive experienced a proper 272 degree half race cam, diff from stock was almost like heaven and earth...the stock one wud just get up really quick, and run out of breath equally as quick...while the race-cammed dude, once in his happy zone, will be continuously pulling away...
a camshaft determines the nature of an engine...you can change the cam to suit your driving style...whether u love torque, or high-rev madness...
with the proper complementing mods, crazy power will be made...case in point : khoyos legendary 4g15, with only 3 mods - twin sidedrafts, rpw 292 race cam, powerzone header...oledi in b16a league...without that race cam, no chance he wud even come close to smelling the smoke from the b16a...
mebbe for the average modder the camshaft mebbe wud play a small role oni...but for those really looking for horses, it is one of the most important mods you can make...
another thing,
my 2 small sen oni, dun flame me ah!
skywalker,
well said, but saying no power can be extract from a reputable aftermarket brand of camshaft is ridiculous.
tofu_maniac,
u r saying power can be extract from a performance camshaft, a bit different as what nitrus experienced. geezzz...
nitrus said:Guys, before you install your cams, please don't think that camshafts will make a very big difference to your engine.. It won't.
At most you can rev higher easier only.. How much bhp it adds, lol i dunno lah. But all I can say is, don't expect much difference like your car suddenly can feel the geeeees when revving or something. It will still be a 4G13. Easily tapau-ed by a modified 4G15.
i thought all this are secrets of any workshop... i mean how they tune each car for the right settings....
anyway, i try help u ask la... but not so soon i guess... coz da workshop is quite far from my place...
another thing is,pipercam,matspeed,powerzone n RPW>>>which 1 will b the 1st choice?watz the difference among those cams?
thx 4 ur help.....hope ur mech can tell u la..>/i juz hope my prob can solve>/
Hmm...no 1 ans my question?
Eh dumbass, don't blow my words out of proportion lah. Getting tired of your game man. I DID NOT SAY THAT NO POWER can be extracted from a reputable aftermarket camshaft. I said don't expect a big difference compared to changing to a higher CC engine, because some people DO expect cams to make their ride damn fast.
Re-read my first post in here, and tell me which part I said NO POWER can be gained?
Don't talk like you know me damn well man. I don't need to prove myself to you, you can carry on acting stupid though.
Have fun.
