VVEL and Jun cams

So now that VVEL has been unlocked, do you think more power would be able to be made from a mod like Jun cams? I don't really know how it

Default VVEL and Jun cams

So now that VVEL has been unlocked, do you think more power would be able to be made from a mod like Jun cams? I don't really know how it all works, wonder if any knowledgeable member out there has any idea. Jun cams supposedly (according to Jun) make 15-20 whp which means it's probably more like 15. If VVEl tuning with Ecutek could push that to 20 - 25, it might be worth it.

i wouldn't mess around with them. boost your car instead of thinking cams.

I was thinking the same thing myself. If a person were trying to stay NA to it should only benifit right?

I'm pretty sure 1slow370 put Jun cams in. From what I've read, they stay open longer and are only helpful for NA.

1slow370 is overseas right? Did he ever post a dyno sheet? I believe there was no VVEL tuning when he did it also. Wonder how it affects sound as well.

oh, wait, he's the one who did dry sump and everything, there was a guy overseas who did cams too. 1slow's car had way too much done to be used as a gauge for the cams, plus no vvel as well I believe.

i think there were possibly 3 people on the forums who did it. 1slow370 and some other dude who was going to post up dyno's but not sure he got around to it, and maybe one other guy. let me see if i can find that post

A few guys did it. but I don't think anyone really had definitive dyno results form just the cams. Also, I am wondering more about how much vvel tuning would affect the gains form the cams from someone who understands how this stuff works better than me.

I would love to see results from doing cams w/ VVEL tuning. I wonder if it makes any sound difference

Im all for more power, but have you heard how it sounds with cams? Sounds like the car is about to die. I don't know if Ill be able to daily a car like that.

If you're referring to 1slow370s car, I agree it sounded bad, but he did a bunch of other stuff also.

Sounded bad, you all are sick to your head. 1slow made the most horsepower out of an NA set up, with minor time to tune the car. He made 360 something on pump and 371 on E-85. Granted he had one hell of an manifold to, custom intake, and shortie headers and exhaust, the cam was the only internal thing done to the car. Just seems like a bunch of haters in the group, He did something noone has done with this platform and made it work, unfortunately he came across some hard times and had to sell the car. I'm personally going to do ipp heads with the jun stage 2 cam etc... hopefully by next Z day at Z1 motorsports.

All we are saying is that we didn't like the way it sounded. That is personal taste. We never said his car sucked. It is the most impressive NA build to date. I am just saying I didn't like the sound and that it had a lot more than Jun cams done to it to use as a gauge of the cams themselves. As for your build, many will be interested in what the cams do for you now especially with VVEL tuning.
