Oh I see Area has dropped down to the 2.8" pulley again with the new cams. I am very interested to see your findings now! I might be doing this more so now when I get back as the recent turbo desctruction path has prompted me to think about beefing up some stuff down below.

Ah ha! I see then. So you moved down to a 2.9" from the 3.06" then. Still an improvement. Your going for 300whp on that aren't you!

once my car figures out what it is doing. sometimes the valve train is quiet. sometimes it's not.

if i drive it around for a while, the lash adjusters build up pressure and take the additional slack up. sometimes not.

hit or miss.

I bet zzp was waiting on hahn to release a price to make sure they could be competitive. thats a good thing. I bet we get a price soon.

- Anyone know if a 272 grind or the JBP cams would be better for twin charged?
