definitely something wrong i think. You should be making power to redline at the least (stock tach)

 

Did you catch what your a/f was above 7k rpm?

 

Ive talked to another guy who also has Jun cams, he changed from tanabe cat-back to 2.5 inch custom exhaust and he gained 10+ whp at the top end.
More importantly his max power swifted from 7000 to 7500 rpm, do you think I am in the same boat as him?

No it was revving too fast and the digits kept changing from 12-14 all the way, i need a graph output to confirm..

i dunno man, i would just have expected you to make power all the way to redline, non 2.5" exhaust or not. **** stock it makes power to 6800.

 

I really believe my exhaust is what holding my power back, the center pipe section of the cat-back along with the test pipe is only 2", even though its straight through it is not free flowing enough. I notice my exhaust note has become MUCH MUCH louder with the Jun cams than my prevous TypeS cams, there is so much more air flowing out from the engine with the Jun.
Looking again at my dyno, the max power right now is at about 7100-7200. With a 2.5 inch and some tunning i believe the top end will be much better.

whats the lift and duration on them again?

 

How many teeth does a 5th gen cam gear have ?

I'm trying to figure out what effect misaligning the timing belt on a cam gear by half tooth has on ignition timing. The shop that installed the cam gears for me says the Skunk 2 cam gears does not have correct markings and my timing is off by half a tooth. How would this affect performance??

 

common misconception that "half-a-tooth "thing. But there is no such thing. It's either a full tooth off or on.

 

yeah if it was a "half-tooth" off, i wouldnt be driving the car.

 

^I meant a tooth off, how would that affect the timing or performance?
