Re: beaterX project thread
I have done cams on a lot of stock turbo/smaller bolt-on turbo IX's and the gains are always quite disappointing compared to what they do on just about any other car on the planet. With bigger turbos that don't suffer from any boost drop at all the gains are probably there or on higher reving setups. I have seen big aftermarket cams on the 9's do some decent gains, but it's always huge turbo cars, while you gain 30-40awhp without doing any tuning or anything when you throw them into a stock turbo Evo 8.
Scheides Evo X always seemed a bit knock prone, I have never been able to get as much timing into it as I can on other Evo Xs. I wonder if if its real knock or not though, since it's always in the same RPM and we can get away with all kinds of boost and decent timing in the midrange.
