Thread: Degreeing BC 264 cams

Im trying to lower my power band to come sooner on my car. I do know for a N/A sr20ve with N1 cams, advancing the intake and retarding the exhaust gets the job done. But what about a F/I with BC 264 cams? would it be the same way? Advance the intake, retard the exhaust?

my setup is GTiR manifold, GT2871r .82 turbine housing to 3" exhaust, and of course BC2 cams, running low boost most of the time, under 14 psi.

As we know JWT are far better cams so last nigth I was doing some spec comparisons and it seems the JWT's with similar profile, the Intake OPens a lot sooner than the BC2. SO if I get my degrees similar to the JWT Im assuming they should yeild better results hypothetically speaking.

BC cams - centerline set to 100* IN and 104* EX

So how do I get them there?

I have two stock cars with those cams and I put them both at 2.5+ and .2.5-

I have c2 cams and currently have them set at 0/+4 on my jun gears. My previous setup was -4/+4. I retarded int and adv exh timing, lost a lot of low end and some midrange. It made the idle good with stock ecu at 750rpm, top end power above 6k was good. Try just adv your int and exh together 2-4* to shift torque curve lower.

So I advanced the intake 3 and retarded the exhaust 3 and it does feel better in the mid area 3rpm to 5rpm feels peppier, like it wants to go, i guess i can say something like the s3 feels. I will try +4I/-4E later in the week.
