yer thats what he told me and the inlet cam was a 264 and ex 264 with cam gears , 2mm hks head gasket,i still can't get my head around it but it is what it is,and all with a stock bottom end and head.unlike mine.i might just get rid of the vct buy one cam and cam gears and see if the result is the same for a extra 30 rwkw but the only thing is im scared of it making little to no difference for the money, should be about $1000 with a tune.so bang for bucks which is my modo == $33.33 for 1RWKW .what do you guys think should i risk it,or just stick the car on gas(nos)
