If you are going to play with the cam timing on the dyno, try advancing it four degrees, too. See what that does for peak torque numbers and how the curves shift around. A little empirical data would be great to have.
I will definitely do so when I get the chance. Everything I've seen shows advancing will improve torque in the midrange up to peak, and that retarding gives more top end. I'm not looking for more midrange torque myself, but will run 2 degree increments in each direction in the name of science.

BTW - did you see this thread regarding exhaust and turbine pressure differential?
Yes...yes I did. I read the whole damned thing. I'm going to stop fucking around and get a full 3" stainless setup from sprayed with Stein's favorite Magnaflow. Tired of halfassing my setup, and this means I'm set regardless of future upgrades.

I still don't want too much more power, but will surely take it. I finally figured out a good way to descirbe how I feel about the powerband. It's like the newer B15 SE-R Sentras compared to the old B13 SR20 cars. The N/A 1.6L is very similar to the B13s rev-happy powerband. I feel like I'm in one of the new jellybeans now...I've got more power, but it's a completely different character, and I might as well reset redline to 6K rpm like the 2.5L B15 motor compared to the 7K rpm of the SR20. I hope I'm making sense. I also know that upgrading my compressor means I'm about to upgrade everything...intercooler...rear end...tranny...later a built 1.8L. I would prefer to tailor what I've got a little...and when I graduate I'll start over with everything I've learned from hustler's and rharris's builds. I only want to re-do it completely once...and I'll do it right. |
throw some noss on it for special occasions a 50 shot of nitrous on a wet kit would do you little harm if done correctly scoure ebay they can be had for 200-300 bucks some times.
