Thread: Advancing cams at low rpm for torque?

    Advancing cams at low rpm for torque?

    Has anyone had success with advancing cam timing for more low rpm torque? I have read that hptuners does not have all the required tables, is this true? Would love to pickup some bottom end power. This is my second ba/bf and I feel like they are very lazy and doughy down low

    set up properly with a decent actuator with correct preload and they are far from doughy

    I'm only NA in this beater for the time being. Possibly I'm expecting too much from it. I'm getting a few degrees Kr at low rpm so maybe there is not much to gain without better fuel anyway

    Are you already running 98?

    Sorry I missed the reply. Yeah running 98 but have not made any changes to the tune yet. I feel like the diff ratio of 3.45 with the t56 isn't helping

    Yes the 3.45 diff gears are alittle tall for a 6 speed n/a car, I thought it would of had 3.7 diff gears std with that setup.
