Well, I'm glad to know that it's not just the OBX's that are this way. Those are my very next steps. Cutting down those bolt heads and trimming the cam gear set screws. Thanks for posting that Dave. Informative AND elegant! ;)

Thanks for the confidence Mike! Heading down that way...That would be one SERIOUS road trip! Hopefully, I'll be able to take you up on that offer! :) Well...these OBX Cam Gears are less than par. The machine work is a joke! The set screws won't set, the adjustment part of the gear won't...

I'm running the stock cams. My main goal is to get the cam timing done and if I have time left, play with engine timing. The plan is to get a baseline at ~12 psi of boost. Then tune the Intake Cam followed by the Exhaust Cam. I'll post up baseline data then the overall gain achieved from...

Well, I know better than to have any expectations; but, I’m hoping for 400 whp.

Thanks Dan! :)

^Thanks for posting that info! My main goal for this dyno session is to get the most out of the stock cams. In post #6, Nick posted a link to some great data. The person in the link gained around 12 hp/27 tq by tuning the stock cams on a stock setup. I would think that because my has more...

In addition to the stock one. Well, I have one plumbed in to the bottom of my radiator; but, I'm not sure that one counts. ;)

Ok. Two things are happening. I'm adding an additional water temp gauge and installing my adjustable cam gears. I'm headed for the dyno on the 16th and hoping for good things! On to the pics... Here is the temp probe install. Next will be the cam gears.

Sweet Lovin Matt!!! Congrats!!!

Well, if it's coolant, then it's the core. Unless your targa leaks coolant...! ;)

Very nice! The first pic is my fav... Not to be nitpicky; but, what's up with the hood gap?

This is one of the reasons my 20G is sitting on my shelf. I love the turbo. At 14 psi, this thing hits like a train!

I'm rolling the rear fenders; but, not the fronts. There's no way I'm removing the inner fender wells! I drive my car too much for that...

Dyno day is scheduled for Oct 16th. We'll see what tuning the stock cams gets me. :) Thanks for all the input guys!

Glad you were able to get it pulled in a timely manner and get them to respond. On the brighter side, at least this happened now and not a year from now with 12k on it. Good luck on Thursday!

Are you going to tune it yourself? If not, you will likely have an easier time finding someone to tune it and for cheaper. The same point applies if you're ever out of town and something goes wrong. Just a thought...

I need a new antenna too. I'm going to be changing my downpipe also. Hey! Are you copying me!? ;) Have you decided on the quickspool valve yet?

Yep. Still waiting for parts... ;) She's gonna look good!

Muchas gracias! :)
