  1. The graph I posted earlier, was with pods. I dont have a specific airbox vs pods back to back graph, but I was there and fitted them myself then spun it up. 14rkw, on boost sooner, and held boost easier. Nothing else was changed between runs other than pods. We had tuned for a new plazaman and gained some power and response, but the pods was done separately.
  2. No idea, but there's no type Rs being discussed, just the usual bullshit of people talking with conviction about shit they've never personally tested
  3. None of you have Type Rs, so stfu because you're not helping me
  4. Can you show me some sheets please as I've been unable to find anything for type R.
  5. Ohh, so not salty then just want me to spend the money first lol I see how it is When are you looking to buy vcam?
  6. Haha, so salty I love it. Surely you've gotta see my thought process about really wanting to dig into things after the pods vs airbox bullshit. How many people swore black and blue airbox wasn't a restriction. Yet oddly my dyno result seems to have just been ignored. I get the theory regarding too much duration causing excessive overlap and costing power down low, and we've seen that with bigger cams. What we don't know is how much duration, and at what cam gear settings, that becomes an issue. Nobody has shown me Type R cams vs stock on a graph yet. In essence, you're probably right, I may just need to buy them and dyno test like I did with the pods. I don't mind being wrong, I just like some actual real world data either way, not just theory and people jumping on a viewpoint despite having no personal experience with it, such as the airbox vs pod discussion.
  7. It was 140 in parts for the Silvia, will be a bit more for the GTR so doing some research doesn't hurt
  8. Here they are. This was a bigger intake cam, 240-248 with a tiny bit more lift, and cam gears being adjusted. As you can see, more response, more torque and more power everywhere. It starts to cross over right at the top of the rev range, bu I'm shifting by then anyway. In my head, this is what I expect from Type R cams dialled correctly, am I way off the mark here given that if I did type R I'd be doing exhaust cam as well? Did the Silvia work better because only the intake had greater duration so there was no/minimal overlap ruining the down low?
  9. So yours is the red line? I'm not sure why the get ignored, I looked at type A also but the R seemed to be pegged for best response. I'll dig up the graphs we did from the silvia which showed cams effect on boost, torque and power. Did you go from stock to type A and gain response and midrange?
  10. Like I said earlier. I increased duration and advance in the Silvia and got more of everything. Went from mild to a little less mild duration and lify. We're not talking going from stock 240 to 272. I wonder if camtech would make a version with 248 duration and max lift before it needs buckets?
  11. I always appreciate the feedback and discussion but I ask for results becausw of things like the pods vs airbox debate. I saw first hand the factory box was a restriction well under 400kw despite everyone swearing black and blue it wouldn't be. Dyno proven, nothing else changed and pods made more power. Again I'll reiterate that I always appreciate and listen to the advice I receive So I always look for real world test results, not just theory.
  12. The lift gain was on par with what were talking here between stock and type r. It wasn't that aggressive an advance if I recall, certainly not 6 degrees as was mentioned here earlier
  13. I could live with the graph being pointer in the middle if the final position was not lower. I like the top end pull it has now. I just want it to come on sooner and harder because that's fun to drive. When I changed the intake cam on the Silvia from 240 to 248 and dialled in the gears, on the dyno, I ended up with better response, and more torque and power everywhere. Different motor though not sure how relevant that is.
  14. And that's fine. But what about small cams and advancing the gears... Gain or retain response and still get midrange and top end?
  15. Agreed, not in the way that stockers are. My 33 with standard R34 BB's on it and 18psi was a beast for traffic light grand prix. My 34 would reel it in and blast past one the speeds climbed though.
  16. Fair enough, what gain are you expecting from mid to top end? I've heard about these before, fit a standard head? No risk of smash smash with that lift?
  17. Yep, seen it. Noted the feedback on here that the real world dyno testing wasn't as generous. I'm on 25psi by similar rpm, also headstuds. What are you basing that buying decision on?
  18. Sorry, should have specified that. Cannot run HKS Vcam "properly", but can run the ottomotto VCT setup as it's just switched.
  19. I did see that the Link can control a Vcam, but again that's a full ECU replacement and tune. Mine's Cams?
  20. If I could run a Vcam off the Plat Pro I'd consider it, but going all new ECU is a ball ache and from what I recall the Electronics that come with it are not special at all.
  21. Understood. Now, as per the original question, who can show me before and afters with Type R cams
  22. Not worth it when you consider the cost of Vcam + the cost of going Elite ECU and a rewire + all new tune. Compromise it might be, but much more cost effective.
  23. $$$$$$$ Not sure, off the top of my head, but they were dialed in with response/mid range in mind.
