Thread: cam gear choice for VE

Im confused on what type of cam gear to buy,

ive recently bought sr16 (non n1) cams and was advised to set them at 2.5, -5

the jwt cam gear sets at 2.5,5,7.5 and 10

the CS gears looks like it increments by 1 until 8....

or are they the same and just confused?

Custom Steel cam gears ftw

i set mine [sr16 cams] @ +3, -5 [didnt have the jwt gears so no 0.5] and went from 14.1 @ 98mph to 13.9 @ 100mph. no other change

peace

very good info! what were the mods during this time?were these n1s?

I only have stock 20ve and sr16 blue top cams.

How were they straight up?

with the cam gear settings i mentioned, the cams were sr16ve NON n1 cams

i dynoed 190whp on crappy e10 90 octane fuel with that setting some time after i got the timeslip

mods: reprogrammed ecu, 3" exhaust, jwt pop charger, modified ssac header

with n1 and cam gears @ the same +3, -5, i made 197whp but didnt better my time lol. could be driver error!

with th sr16 non n1 cams, i had a lil better mid around 4500-6500

peace

i would assume straight would mean 0,0 or am i missing something?

peace

Yep, that's whats straight up means..

well if that's the case, straight up i was getting 98mph and 14.1 ET

think i dynoed about similar whp but a bit different power band. +3, -5 gave me more usable power

all these time are with street tyres and only seats emoved from my n15 lucino

peace

what was your rev cut with the non n1 cams?

8500 rpm

peace
