when tuning the aem cam gear do you advance or retard the timing if you want more low end torque? im thinking you advance it (just common since) but since i didnt know anything about it i just wanted to ask the forum.

You must advance for low end and retard for top end...I haven't dyno tuned my cam gear or VAFC II but i did advance my cam gear 2 degrees and I noticed a little more low end torque. Did that help?

Advanced timing = low end

Retarded timing = big end

yes...advance for torque. Gonna buy me some next month, i saw my friends dad tune his cam gears on his hatch and think that its worth it

Will you still get good gains if you only have a cam gear instead of getting it with an aftermarket cam?? What would be more useful in a race, low end or top end?? Oh yeah, I heard that Skunk 2 is comming out with a cam for our motors.

King motorsports.com has them for $139 dollars. Has anybody dynoed their car at different degrees of advancement and retardation?

to get the most power you want to advance the ignition timing 5 degrees not cam timing.
you'll need to run higher octane fuel though so that you will not have any pinging or run into detonation.

I'll believe it when I see it. They are probably making a cam for 6th gens not 7th gens.

 
Rep Power: 0

They already have cams for 6th gens, I heard this from the owner of a store. They are already making cam gears for 7th gens.
