as fas as the tune goes you woud just install and get a tune from someone skilled with hp tuners, or my preference, which is to call up vince a trifectaperfomace,com and have him send out a tuning cable for you to get tuned with. And no, this is before he 78lb springs and before the new header/dp
i know im right! i run supertech 78lb springs aswell. you also need to look into solid lifters. with a cam that heavy you will collapse the factory ones. i know cuz i thappened to me and my cam isnt that fat. also get rid of that lightweight crank pulley too. unless yur lower rotating assembly is balanced to that specific pulley you are throwing off your engines harmonics. spells disaster for sure.
THe lifters have been shown to be fine, that has been discussed before. At they are the right lifters for the cam. And for the crank pulley, i plan on getting rid of the balance shafts all together...so itll be a mute point then
if yur running factory lifters yur gonna collapse them. end of story. ive already beem down that road. its not fun. as for the balance shafts. i deleted mine aswell but it doesnt matter. unless your lower end is balanced for use with that specific pulley yur gonna run into problems. ATI has a nice write up on engine harmonics and aftermarket balancers.
hey im going to be getting some cams for my car but what cam do you have and what other mods do you have and how hard was it to install all of it. I have an intake and downpipe back exhaulst system and a tune and have you dynoed it yet and if so what are u pushing
the top run i did was 180.16whp and 164.91wtq although that was with the afr way off...so estimates put it at ~200whp now performance mods: Ebay CAI 2.4l intake mani 2.4l tb lsj injectors stage 2 comp cams shaved head .020" lightweight MRZ crank pulley Lightwieght MRZ alt pulley clear image 4-2-1 header clear image catless 2.5" dp clear image 3" exhaust w/ straight through style muffler on the end other stuff is on it...but doesnt apply to this lolol

only when I had no aftermarket vavle springs and overspun the engine (over reved by grabbing the wrong gear). But no, none that would occur normally
