Default hmm any plans for a custom tune in the future?

Maybe you should give Tony a call and see what he says about what sort of gains you could expect to see with cams+tune. You would also be able to get n75 code for your wastegate.

Default it will move the power band further right, do you really want this with 3+

you might not see full boost befor 3800rpm if you do it, but it will help top end.

I think with out lemmi winks, the ecu will have a fit.

Default Haha, no...my 16G is about the same size as your RS.

I'm just saying that a "big" enough turbo to warrant having something even crazier than those cams woud be like a 35R or something.

Default if I know I'd have great top end, why the hell not

I just don't know how much I would get on the top end.

Default gotcha

how was your bottom end effected by your cams? Obviously you gained some on your top end.

Default Really no difference...

I think all the dyno's say maybe 5 ft/lbs or so until around 4k rpms and then its up 10-15 ft/lbs for quite a bit. My setup is usually good for 20-30 whp tuned. I got 25 whp out of them at the same boost level, etc.

The biggest difference is the area below peak power. 6500+ rpm power is insanely higher, like 30-40 whp at 7 grand.
