I used a d15 jdm cam. in my d16y6 specs out to almost the same as a skunk 2 turbo cam. and it works for me in my setup. something to look into if you want. its not a real aggressive cam. hope this helps your search.

 

bump, if anyone else has any info lmk

 

bump cause I'd like info too.

get the delta...it's a regrind, but it's cheap and lobe seperation is practically stock; you get a few degrees of duration and some added lift, which is fine for your setup.

do not, and i repeat, do not waste your money on Web or anything of that ilk. They are extremely expensive, customer support/ service is horrendous, etc.

pro racers/ the sponsored are the only ones who get good grinds out of web; most of the time, ground to the pro's spec anyway....

gude is another company who sells some cam grinds for your setup, but they are probably the worst company to still exist....it's incredible; the r&d is old, and it's a safe bet you will get a damaged piece back from them, if anything at all.

JG offers grinds for your setup. I am not aware of how Javier treats customers nowadays.

 

hey builthatch, i noticed that you state that you have a d16y7 running mid 13's, what is your setup thanks man

 

i did in the late 90's.

all it had was balanced bottom end, d16a1 rods, je 12:1 pistons, head studs, some portwork and a freakin' web cam.

i got seriously ripped off by Ripp Mods in Staten Island. They lied about what was in it and got caught, not to mention they still ripped me off making claims about what it would make and not even coming close and even if the parts i paid for WERE in there, i still paid about 3X too much money; if you knew how much they charged me, you would vomit. i'll just say it would have paid for a year at a good out of state college.... That is when i decided to do everything myself. God, what a strong move. My y8 has been tons of fun for the past 3+ years.

i ran anywhere from a 35 to a 70 shot on it at the track and at the street races...

 

****, thats pretty good for a y7 on a 70 shot, was it wet or dry......direct port???

 

dry. i was an idiot back then.... hehe

its funny tho, i told them, at first, that i wanted a single nozzle fogger kit. i mean, i knew what i wanted and had the foresight to know what was safer between dry and wet; so they got me a single nozzle wet kit from NOS, which back then was ONLY for turbo cars because it did not 'fog' or atomize the fuel and nitrous. i mean the part number was only for mr2, toyota supra, etc...

needless to say, it blew up very fast. so they then got me a single nozzle dry kit.

 

dang back from the dead?
