Well i was going to get forced induction so i went ahead and bought some skunk2 turbo1 cams. I had some money stuff jump up so i didnt get the turbo kit but tax time i will. i was told to go ahead and put them in and it would add like 15-20 hp. I cant tell if they are doing anything. My car dosent seem to run as well because it opens the valves to much. my question is, should i leave them in or take them out and put the oem back ones back in? someone told me i wont get anythting untill i have bigger injectors, how true is that and what should i do? anything will hwlp

thanks for your time

 

did you have your car re-tuned once you put the cams in because your stock cams have a much higher overlap compared to turbo cams... the turbo cams have a shorter duration to prevent exhaust creep... and the injector size will really make no difference if you already upgraded them when you turboed it in the first place... tuning is your best friend

 

well i dont have it turboed yet. because of money, but i was told not to tune it yet because i would have to retune it when i got my turbo kit on.

 

if u want to keep those cams in there u are gonna have to get it tuned. Otherwise put the stock ones back in till u get ur setup.

 

I'd honestly just sell the cams and spend the money on something else. You'll still be able to make a large amount of power using the stock cams.

 

if i sell the cams what should i go with? Intake manifold and throttle body?

 

I'd personally save the money to put towards tuning.

 

put the stock cams in until your ready to turbo.
dont sell them cause then you will have to buy them again.

Not necessarily. Plenty of people make a great deal of power using the stock cams on turbocharged applications. A good tune is far more important.

 

thanks guys for your info.
