I have a 00 itr with the following mods, aem cold air, comptech header, spoon n1 axle back, Act clutch and clutchmasters flywheel. I was wondering what some basic settings for the cam gears would be. I know I should go to the dyno but the only one I can get to is booked out a month. Any help would be apreciated.

 

Just wait until you get on the dyno.

 

basic cam gear settings should be 0,0 until you have time to dyno.

 

just wait

 

yeah wait,,,every motor reacts different at least most of the time

 

Before you do anything make sure that you adjust the ignition timing back to normal after you advance the intake timing by using a timing gun! (Advancing the intake also advances your ignition timing). I would suggest that you have the above procedure done my a professional because any mistake adjusting the cams can lead to bent valves or engine failure due to interference with the pistons !!! So be careful!!!


(I have mine is set up as +2 (advance) intake and - 2 (retard) exhaust. My ignition tming is at 16.)

 

Just curious.. whats the stock ignition timing set at on B16A2's? and what would you have to set it at when changing cam gear settings? do you even have to change the timing?

Seperate issues.

Stock B16A2 timing should be 16+/- 2, IIRC.

Correct, sir.

 

Thanks for that info. When you advance the intkae cam, does it change the ignition timing as well meaning you have to mauanlly set it back to 16*? How do you know what to set the igntion timing to? Just wondering if someone could maybe answer my new post about timting in the tech section. thanks.
