Default K-series: Oside Jimc's CTSC RSX-S: Optimized





The above graphs represent the gains seen with new SC specific camshafts (dark blue dotted line) in comparison to stock K20A2 performance (light blue dotted line) as tested with the following components:

- K20A2 RSX-S (internally stock bottom end - 11:1cr)
- Injen CAI
- Comptech Supercharger
- Pulley Boys Custom 3"
- JR Race Header
- Comptech 2.5" catback exhaust
- Hondata K-Pro
- 650cc RC Injectors
- Walbro 255

Oside Jimc is no stranger to the ways of the Dynapack. In fact, if it were not for his personal efforts to establish bonafide baseline tunes, you wouldn't be reading about this today. He laid the groundwork and made it very easy for us to focus on the task at hand. Jim, thank you very much for volunteering your car for testing. It is always a sensitive issue, and represents a fair amount of risk to both parties. I am happy to report positive results.

Much appreciation must also go to Church Automotive and Epic Motoring for enduring a 7-day, non-stop testing environment. Their collaborative effort is second to none, and the overall success we've attained as a team would not be possible should there have been any weak links. Thanks fellas for the outstanding work!

-Ron

Not such a big difference, but it did help with your camshaft edo.

The VTC gear helps out alot in the low-end.

This isn't turbocharging where we can turn up the wick as we see fit. So yes, the profiles definitely are working in a "static" environment to make more boost sooner with the fixed blower speed. Notice how peak boost isn't altered very much.
For supercharging, it's all about maximizing what you've got.
