Well I just installed PI cams today and I am not pleased so far. Keep in mind I already had the PI intake. Anyway, so I installed the cams and took the car on a drive. It doesn't like to be at 1500rpms in 5th gear anymore, and the power gains seem minimal. Maybe 10hp if I think big. For those of you that have PI cams, did you get a tune afterward? Did you notice any real gains? Unless I can pick up quite a bit more power with a tune, I'm not feeling that they were worth the hassle. The car ran a 14.6 at 95mph with a crappy 2.2 60' two nights ago, so I have base number to compare to when I head back to the track. Hopefully my E.T.'s will improve. On a good note, it started up immediately when I turned the key, and had no leaks. The engine is a bit louder though than it was. Opinions?
Before you guys suggest more engine mods here is what I'm doing.
I'm building a teksid based 4v with 03 cobra heads, that I'm planning on supercharging, so power in my near future will not be an issue. For now, however, I was trying to get a bit more power out of what I have in the car currently. Thanks everyone
UPDATE: MAF sensor was unhooked. That should solve the problems.
