That's correct, this is the point where there was virtually no tq loss. I think there was a couple more peak hp by going further, but the tq loss down low wasn't worth the gain up top. My VICS did not help my power numbers. It made the best numbers with vacuum port plugged.

It's a fidenza wheel, when looking straight on a the wheel, it is set to the left hand 8 degree mark.

Do any of these cam gears work on 99-2000 NB intake side? There is some sort of sensor on that side and the OEM gears have metal nubs that I assume get picked up by the sensor.

These Ebay ones:

seem to have them, but they don't list 99-2000 application. Any idea?
