We all need to meet up and ride out together.

Yes, it will see some track time.

But it should be tuned tomorrow. Got the exhaust done today.

**Catnip** · 08-18-2009, 05:12 PM

It's "camming" because it's not running right...

**Revmaynard** · 08-18-2009, 05:20 PM

LOL ^

**p3tey2** · 08-18-2009, 05:22 PM

After tune, with it running right, I'm sure it would still cam alittle.

**BABY J** · 08-18-2009, 05:26 PM

True. I retract my previous statement. LOL

VTEC hondas don't "cam." They have vtec so the primary lobes aren't aggressive, giving more low end power, then switching to the secondary (aka vtec) lobes at high RPM (4500 for the GSR, 5500 for the B16, etc) which are more aggressive lobes... where it's actually usable.

Hence no lumpy idle for VTEC hondas.

*edit* "camming" hondas are A. Non-vtec, B. Not running right, C. Vtec running vtec killers... being that the motor is a LS/VTEC... it's not running right

**jdm>usdm** · 08-18-2009, 05:51 PM

I ran an aggresive cam in my y8.

It cammed. And yes, the timing was right. And no, it wasnt a vtec killer cam.

**jdm>usdm** · 08-18-2009, 05:51 PM

But then again, it was a BLOX cam.

And it was kinda a POS

Running near perfect AFRs/Fuel pressure?

Yep.

Ass tuned it myself with a wide band and an afc neo.

Go watch videos of properly tuned honda motors with cams... they're pretty damn mild sounding. Plus I highly doubt the wagon is running pro1s.

lol. Trying to tell me your car was almost perfectly tuned and then telling me it was done with an AFC, isn't very convincing... no offense of course

A car being perfectly tuned vs.perfectly tuned at idle are two different things. I mean there are only so many things that can be done within those few hundred rpms which the car tends to settle at idle.

All I know is I messed with the bitch like crazy to get the idle right... and it still cammed.

It seemed to actually run better at idle when I gave it a leaner a/f mixture than how it ran with more fuel. Which is the opposite as to what I thought would happen. Idk Im no pro tuner by ANY means though.lol

love the look +repz

**BABY J** · 08-18-2009, 09:08 PM

This is funny! LMAO. Especially the notion that some VTEC cams don't have bigger primary lobe than OEM. This thread is full of mis-information.
