hahahah I think you read my mind Leo![Laugh](https://www.miataturbo.net/images/smilies/laugh.gif)
Reason I asked ctd if he re-dyno'd with boost control is because that graph doesn't really impress me next to yours, and I'd like to see what that car would do with boost hitting as early as possible to see if those cams really are worth a ****. I mean you hit 400 and held it to damn near redline on stockers.........he has nearly nothing til about 5k
ctd do you have dyno plot of 20psi?

Don't be jelly of dat lump
I remember when you where getting boners about building a vvt head w/ cams and everyone on the chat saying you were stupid. More mid-range torque would just kill your tires and make you take up 6spd collecting as a hobby. Donky punch dat drive train son![Falcon Punch](https://www.miataturbo.net/images/smilies/th_falcon_punch1.gif)

I'd still like to build it but I'm spending money on racing w2w in lemons this year

6 speed box with 3.6 rear end.
Engine is almost back together now so cams are going to be something for the future. Will see what the standard cams are like with some adjustment with the new GTX2867r.
what sort of cam timing figures are working for the mk2 cams and head? i know its something that we will have to play with on the dyno but roughly where to start?

No dyno on 20psi, what would impress you? Keep in mind the cams and intake were done to rev high. And I'm only reving to 8 when I can be going to 9. I would like to see better boost response, these cams bleed off a lot of compression so I want to play with the gears on the dyno and pull some overlap out, that with ebc I should get better torque and full boost sooner. I don't know why I was in such a rush when I dyno'd the car
I know, that's not the point of cams, but when both of you are making around 400, and he's got triple the area under curve, on stock head, its hard to be impressed with your plot.
That's why I'd like to see ctd run ALLOFIT

TSE is coming out with some cams soon for VVT - you might ask if he's planning on cams for non-VVT in the future?
Oops - sorry, didn't realize Sav posted above (stopped reading at Page 2) - yeah, wut he said, 2013

I wasn't disrespecting you. But I'd want to see more area under the curve.

And soviets car is still pulling hard at 7k...whats your point? if he was making 500 at 8k then itd be different. I'm not whining, just comparing and expecting (or wanting) to see more.

Patients is a virtue, I'm gonna try to run on the dyno again this year. Can you post the other dyno chart your comparing mine to, or post a link. Also what turbo and boost pressure. I'm curious to see the torque difference with stock cams

he's running more boost, etc. but the head is stock, so is the IM, and an otherwise very basic setup vs your super fancy one. its not apples vs apples, but like I said I'd really want to see yours on high boost cause right now his plot is 10x more desireable

TSE needs to focus on bringing their turbo kit to market. I was going to get castings done of a few new manifold designs but I decided to refinance my house instead. **** PMI. I need to pay for day care.

Perhaps. I am the cam spool guy at work. But if I need more power I will just add a psi or two more boost.
EDIT: Actually we cannot do the gears on the KL cams so those would be too expensive for me.
OHHH right, I was thinking BEGI. My bad!
