Default just bought a exospeed cam... suggestions?

i bought the stage 2 cam. just bought it tonight so i didnt get it yet. but i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions. i have read having a adjustable fpr made a diffrence in it. should i turn my fuel pressure up? change my dizzy timing or maybe get a cam gear and advance/retard the timing? thanks any advice would be sweet. im stoked!

take it to a tuner, have him adjust the FPR dizzy timing, and cam gear.


that way it'll be SAFE, and faster!

with a stage 3 you're going to have to get it on a dyno and tune it. Slapping in a ecu with different fuel maps isn't going to do it.

Messing with fuel pressure probably isn't going to be enough either to get the car to run right. I'd look into turboedit.

well my homie for the longest time was runing his stage 2 exospeed cam with a pg7. and that **** ran sick of course he knows the tricks of the trade to run cams. but as for a stage 3 i here its not to friendly just going about it without a tune. so follow everybody's advise and invest in turboedit and some tuning. to run that cam at maximum potential

this thing is pretty insane for being a d15b1. i got the fpr set at 50psi and some hotter plugs. at first i wasnt too please. but i was waiting for a header in the mail and today it came and i put it and my testpipe on and it really opened this thing up. it pulls really good from like 3k-redline. before with the stock cat and header it didnt really pull till almost 5k rpm.

A+ for my ***** will at exospeed!

You know the stage 3 cam requires compression to be a happy camper, right?
