oooowwwwww yyeeeeeaaaahhhhhh[/macho man]

[Yareka]

what else are you doing...staying with stock valve springs?

I remember tyrolsport and chris86vw were playing with a 16v adjustable cam sprocket. Believe they found that the ecu didnt like anymore than 6* adjustment so they abandoned it?????

[a4wdhybrid]

staying w/ completely stock head

dont have the $$ for springs and honestly, i dont really want to mess w/ it

i can throw these things in a stock head and be good to go..so thats what im going to do

there are adjustable cam gears for a 1.8t but the ecu not being happy makes total sense

Bad bad bad.. heheh:oddeye-hellyeah:

[Yareka]

dude...dont make me click on vortex to find out how it runs:mad:

idle?
10-20hp?
what rpm? just midrange?
worth it?
trading out for a more aggressive one?:D

[Bacon]

It was done so fast i the cams were still hot coming out. i ddint even really have to do anything.

[a4wdhybrid]

dude...dont make me click on vortex to find out how it runs:mad: vortex...:rolleyes:

idle? could be better..it doesnt hold as much vacuum as it did..im going to try a tba and im thinking about taking out the suction pump and just using a check valve like yours and travis's set up

10-20hp? bob said 30-40..its believable

what rpm? just midrange? midrange is only the beginning ;)

worth it? yep

trading out for a more aggressive one?:D prob not anytime soon :cool: ...i almost ate the back of an suv this afternoon :eek:
:gt-bb-chongin:

[Yareka]

awesome...I'll definitely be adding this on the future list. Seems like when you find the right turbo with the powerband you are looking for, this is icing on the cake. Looking forward to seeing if you get the vacuum worked out. Do you have two lines going to the brake booster as well, one being the vacuum booster...what a mess. Does it really need two lines going to it?...doubt it.

how has your a/f changed?

[a4wdhybrid]

there are 2 lines that come off the mani, both goto the suction pump and then one line to the booster..does seem like overkill

to be honest the only time ive really looked @ the a/f was during idle and normal cruising...both seemed to be pretty steady ~14.7..the misfires during idle will cause a 15.x-16.x a/f..too little vacuum for the ecu

under boost ive been glued to the tach

1hr :eek:

[Yareka]

I see cat cams selling a lot more cams now:oddeye-hellyeah:

Holy shit...1hr install. Not bad.

[Bacon]

I didnt think it would be that easy, any one else who wants to do it Ill help on the install.

[Bacon]

I wouldnt fuck with brake booster lines, they did it for some kind of reason. It might be so you have power brakes during a certain situation that will occur for the first time after you do it while you coming into a turn very fast and youll have to stand on your brakes to keep from going off the road into a very big tree.

[a4wdhybrid]

copy and paste..

If your idle is a little choppy try increasing the idle trq to smoothen things out.
i checked my settings tonight

my idle speed was @ +20 and the torque was @ 0

i bumped the idle torque to +10, started it, it stumbled a little bit and then seemed to smooth out..i didnt let it idle for very long either though

when i shut it off i put torque @ +11 and speed @ +30

ill report back tomorrow how it works out
