adjusting the cam ... meaning .. adjust the time the valve open or close relative to the position of the piston ....

imagine .. the gas is exploding in the chamber and the intake valve or exhaust valve open up and have the sound wave come out of the chamber ...

that cause it to be very loud when the valve overlap .....

How hard or easy is it to change the timing in order to get better performance?
