Have you been to the dyno yet? how many pounds of boost have you lost?

 

[Cabikejumper]

I lost 1.5-2psi. And I made less HP now that I had the cams installed.




Svtperformances website is a piece of shit. I can't see what I wrote in the original post with the YouTube video. Is it showing? It shows when I click edit but not in the original post. Won't work on my phone or laptop.

 

[zporta]

You made less power with the cams?

That sounds nasty!

 

[zporta]

I want that sound!

 

[2011 gtcs]

They sound nasty. I need to do a set of cams

 

[hotford]

somethings wrong there bro, you should be picking up HP not losing it..........
40 plus RWHP gain with anything in the stage 3-4 range.......

 

[zporta]

Yea should be making an easy 50+ whp with a 1-2lb drop in boost

 

[Cabikejumper]

Car sputters 0-2450rpm then gets after it. I made 533 with just a pulley. Now I'm at 520 with cams and same pulley. Shop is saying I need a tensioner. Once I get that, I'll gain the boost back and make the 50-60hp

Tuner sent a third revision tune over. I'm just trying to get this POS computer to get it to download to the tuner.

Loosing boost is a good thing. That means your cams are doing its job. Your making your set up more efficient. I made 714 rwhp with stock manifolds. I installed longtube headers and dropped 4 psi of boost but gained 40hp and 45trq. Your car sounds like the belt may be skipping and it needs a good tune.

 

[Cabikejumper]

I couldn't get the tube to download.


I have two problems now. Both started after the cams were installed

1- car is misfiring until 2400rpm. Car threw a random misfire. Changed the plugs, checked the COPs. Still there.

2- after the car gets to temp, it leaks coolant. I can't pin point the leak. I didn't have time before I left for work. It does not leak when I let it run for a minute in the garage. I only notice a puddle after I took the car out. When I left the two places( I didn't notice the leak) only noticed it after an hour or two of sitting in the Garage.

 

[Cabikejumper]

I'll take any advice. Pissed that I spent 3400.00 for cams, install, and tune and I can't even drive the ****ing car.

 

[HillbillyHotRod]

That sucks. Someone somewhere missed something. Hose clamps. That's all I can think of. Did they do it in the car or drop the motor out? I would take it back to whoever did the install.

 

[Cabikejumper]

That's the thing, I work out of town 8-10 months out of the year. I can't just take it back to the shop. Plus, if it is a coolant issue, I'll have to rent another trailer and go through that whole hassle again.


I did get the MGW Gen 2 in yesterday. Too bad I left this morning for work. I have two wait a few months to installing.

 

[HillbillyHotRod]

At least get a hold of them and let them know there is a problem. That way they can't say "you had it months ad now say it had problems when you picked it up". Hope you can get it sorted out.
