Pretty sure you will see the same gain's give or take a few..
i'm still waiting to see the stage 2 gains and hoping it will be released here soon.hoping for more horsepower up top..

The car had an Uprev tune before the install. Was it still Uprev or Ecutek? If it was Ecutek, then some of those gains could be form that as well as the cams. If it was still Uprev afterwards, than we can say it was attributed just from the cams.

Honestly it is hard to say, all signs point to yes, if not even more torque due to the increased exhaust flow. Intake wise, I honestly im not sure that any of the aftermarket intakes I have seen will add any power to NA motors. The factory intake is pretty well designed, just cant handle crazy boost pressures.

Spot on, the goal is to have the Stage 2s in a car in the next couple months.

We changed absolutely nothing other than Cams to keep it a controlled test. Same weather, UpRev tune with only the addition of the cams.

Can you post a video of the car idling and driving so we can hear how it sounds?

brucelidat · 12-07-2015, 02:24 PM

Any videos for sound?

MAMotorsports · 12-08-2015, 09:07 AM

Let me see if I can find some! There was one on the dyno, but all you can hear is the dyno.

It idles like stock honestly.

Mysilverz · 12-08-2015, 09:15 AM

TiTs good to hear that it idles like stock.

Dahawkster · 12-11-2015, 12:17 PM

Does the motor really need to be taken out? I feel like I could do that install with the motor still in the car, does anybody have any experience with head work without removing the motor please chime in. I would lIke a mod like this but that install looks kind of crazy.

MAMotorsports · 12-11-2015, 01:41 PM

So I found a real crappy video from after we put them in. Hit up the customer to see if he can stop by one of these days.

As for doing it in the car, we have done it. Saves you MAYBE 2 hours, and adds a large amount more curse words, and anger. 100% worth it to pull the engine.

Its best to pair it with other parts, long tubes are a good example as installing those with the cradle dropped is much easier also.

It looks like a 12-15hr job to do it in the car.

Its possible for sure, but, this is a job that you really really really want to take your time on. I have a tech here that has done this many times, and I would still be hesitant to say 15hrs for it in car. We just did one last week, and id say he had about 18hrs into it (This would be his 7th time id say)

Should have a car in this week to grab a video of idle!

Just thinking about it makes my shoulders hurt again. Holding air tools above your head most of the day sucks.

Wish i still lived in MD, You guys woud have my business installing the cam

brucelidat · 12-11-2015, 01:43 PM

I'm waiting for stage 2 to see the gains and how that sounds and also for a new manifold to go with and maximize it.

PongSanity · 12-11-2015, 02:36 PM

This mod would get done when I'm ready to drop a built motor in. If I was staying N/A though, this mod would've been very convincing to get done during tax refund season.... Torque wins races. HP wins trophies.
