I spoke to Lund about tuning them and he said no problem.

He did mention something about the phasers being "finicky" but he did not think it was related to the cams .

He said something to be aware of when installing .

Not sure which car he tuned he was referring .

Good to hear. My local to me tuner of choice uses Lund

His exact words were "the phasers went bad when he was trying to run the cams "
....but he did not think it was related to the cams themselves .
Would it be something with the install ??
Are their specific pitfalls my installer should be aware of ?
May be beefcake can elaborate as I think he was referring to his car.

When i asked him (Jon jr.) about maxing out the Whipple, he suggested lock outs.

I wouldn't wanna run cams with lockouts

Is that is a DD setting or overall? Also why is that? I'm considering doing that when you do all my head work.

some one posted a dyno graph last week showing that vvt can be run using the larger comp blower cams
And maintain low end torque. I think without the vvt the low end torque drops off

I think he said he could tell there was noticeable loss of torque below 2000 rpm.

 

[Scp-steve]

I saw that too
I'm wondering what the loss would be if he didn't have vvt operational

If the only loss is under or around 2k, i'm a little confused as to why that is an issue?

I don't see a lot of information out there about cams
And how they perform in the 2015-2017 cars

Even with my car I have not been able to dyno it yet
After the head work and porting the blower
I would like to get my boost level back to the 12 psi range before the dyno

I would be interested to see a dyno before and after with only change being the head work etc no smaller pulley.

I'm curious too
I think I'll head over to see Travis at boostworks and see if I can get that done soon
