stating the obvious, all cars are different, get it tuned.

well maybe when stating the obvious you learnt the obivous... thier standardcams.

so thier for all would be the same.

He meant that all cars respond to different cam gear settings differently...even with standard cams...so tuning IS STILL REQUIRED to get some quantitative results...so your mistake there...

That said...i've read up alot about these before i had mine done and in general most guys ended up with between +1 to +3 advance on INLET and -2 to -6 retard on EXHAUST...thats a starting range...the rest is up to you...

[yogibear]

ok thanks.

[yogibear]

if any one elsa has any other answers would be great

[limpus]

Checked mine...its set to +3 IN and -6 EX...another guy i spoke to runs +2 IN -5 EX...so maybe try a setting around there when you get yours tuned...

get it tmmrw now (hoping), timing belt and water pump changed. true, but still you will need it tuned. i doubt any gains in the top end will happen, at most might get a little extra midrange? any who tell you when i get it

Did you end up getting these fitted and tuned? interested in results...

[Sqd32]

[haha no . they couldnt get into the ecu, wrong software. having a mate look at it tues so with any luck, results will be then. sometimes i hate my car lol

[yogibear]

is that 5- of the crank? or of the cams?

on my cam gears they say every mark means 2"s of the crank?

thanks

[yogibear]

any one?

Heard from a few tuners the best results on RB20s are seen at IN + 3 and EX - 6 but that being said, all motors are different and react differently

I just had my car on the dyno over the weekend and we ended up advancing the EX side as it liked it better and picked up a bit more power through the midrange and top end, when he retarded the exhaust side it lost a whole heap of power

I'd probably suggest you let a tuner do it just so they can recheck timing and making sure its not pining etc

but is the +3 and -6 of the crank ? or is it of the cams?

[PM-R33]

Pretty sure they mean off the cams.
