At first I plugged my tuner in....well I was trying to mess with the RPMs, but I cant figure it out. Do I have to load the tune again to do it? I have a 91 and a 93 tune but im not sure if my tuner loaded the tune into the xcal2. What I guess im trying to say is that, im not sure if those are brenspeeds tunes or the guy that did it locally.

I'm sort of confused on the dyno graph you posted. What to the red and green lines represent? If that's before and after I see no gains in TQ at all. Are those just two runs with cams with tweaks to the tune or something?

I believe one is torque and one is hp. I didnt do a before dyno, but had one done about a year ago so thats where I got the before and after. Definitely a difference between canned and custom tune. But brenspeeds tune was very nice anyways.

Glad you asked cause you've got a nice car but the first thing I noticed was lack of tire.

You can go alot bigger. I'm running 295/45/18's out back and 255/50/17s up front with all BMR suspension parts and Tokico shocks/struts. So - 285/40s would work fine for you.

Good job on the cam #s - very impressed.

No way hp and torque track each other like that. Torque is always higher in lower rpm and hp is always higher in higher rpms.

Those 2 curves look like 2 hp plots from 2 different dyno runs.

two different runs... torque and a/f are the only things showing on that graph. I think it said run 004 and run 008. my guess is those are the best two runs. Great numbers. Surprising that cams only netted a 30+ horse gain from the last numbers.

30 hp is good for me.

I like how these cams do not lose power either. I read more on the Thumpr today and while they sound killer, I'm just not at all impressed with the performance. The hot rods give you no loss but gains from 3K and up and consistent gains as well. Killer sound and stock valve train.

Mucho Bueno! Sehr Gut!

I'm going to have to see many more dyno sheets on these cams. No doubt I have a great deal more power and higher up in the powerband but I haven't seen any dyno sheets that look the same.

I'm sure I would lose 20+ hp and another 500-750rpm in powerband with stock cams.

Powerband is immensely important in a 4.10 geared and N/A car.
