there really isn't much hp to be gained from adjustable cam gears on a 91 cam. even on some of the bigger JWT or JUN cams you might see a couple hp. nice ride, BTW.

I gained 8.2 hp with a 91 intake cam at 15 degree timing...

JWT ECU pop program
Place Racing CAI
Greddy SP exhaust
HotShot headers
UR 4 pulley set
ACT PP with street disk
Lightened flywheel

I can post a dyno sheet of before and after on the same day of dyno tests with stock 96 cam and 91 cam...

why don't you list your cam gears as a mod? do you mean adjusting the timing of the car to 15*?

I've read that using cam gears on stock cams to increase over lap is good for a hp boost. stillen shows a 6 hp boost in there catalog on stock cams and a 91 cam is good for 8 hp i was wondering the results of the two combined. I was thing of trying this since i'm not interested in spending huge amounts on cams.

stillen would tell you an anvil in yer trunk is worth 12 hp if it made them $$. please read this and then tell me what you think of adj. cam gears: SE-R.net write up on Adj. Cam Gears (http://www.se-r.net/car_info/engine_performance_tuning.html#Adjustable Cam Sprockets).

That proves my point i don't want to do them with aftermarket cams I don't want aftermarket cam. I want to try it with a factory 91 intake cam on a 99 g20t. so i want to change to a 91 cam and advance it 2 or 3 degrees and may be retard the exaust a degree

did you have anything done other than the cam swap, i.e. cam gears?

that looks like a good gain. i have the cam also. although i don't think i gained 8hp. it just doesn't feel like it.
