Performance Cams

[smoothdc_5]

A good set of performance cams for my GSI?

[locote]

CROWER 403s for good all round power. depending on other mods.
CROWER 404s for good top end power (6K+). rasing compresion, exhaust and intake upgrades is a must for these cams.

cam gears and valve springs and retainers must be installed to take full advantage of peak power(7000rpm+)

[smoothdc_5]

do you think a fuel pressure regulator will increase power too?

[locote]

dout it will do anything...

if u wanna stay N/A get the 404s and some head work!!!

your car man or auto???

F.P.R. will do nothing but make you run rich or lean if the computer doesn't compensate. Changing the F.P.R. helps when you run a new pump, injectors and a power adder where you need more/less fuel. The stock one is good for starters until you get big on mods like a big turbo kit. Even then it can still be enough.

How I started:
1: Itake system: Manifold, T.B., and Intake. Avg cost:$800-1000USD
2: Exhaust: Manifold, Muffler, and bigger piping. $400-$600USD
3: "Bolt-on" internals: Cam gears and Cams $500USD
4: Fuel: Fuel rail, F.P.R,. Filter, Pump, and some of the lines. $400USD
5: Internals: Pistons, Rods, Crank, Sleeves, and Valvetrain $3000-$4000USD
6: Power adder: Turbo/Super charger (Little Kit, just what you need to bolt on the turbo), Injectors, Computer, Whatever else I forgot. $2000-$5000USD

As you can see the F.P.R. came after many mods but didn't go on until I got the turbo. Just my $.02USD!!

Slow96GSR have you ever heard of anyone loosing trap speed at drags after upgrading to crower cams???

[Slow96GSR]

Ya with bad tuning! It's easy. With cams and gears it's all in a good tune, do it right like we do and everything will run perfect. Also why keep spending the money for bad tunes?

[locote]

K, ill head straight to dyno after cams go in lol....

[Slow96GSR]

Well that's a little extreme but you'll know after driving it for a mile. If you read the card, tune it, test drive it, dial it in more you get it sooner or later. Just make sure you go in with a full tank!
