      I'm unsure as to your specific transmission, but the fact remains that with a high stall converter and a shift improver you will net better 1/4 times

      Flywheel for "2004-2006 Manual" $40+ s/h

      so does that leave poor me with an automatic tranny out of this one?
      Yeah well sometime i'll try finding one, i dont plan on starting the flywheel projects for at least a few months anyway, hopefully i can find a stocker on ebay then

      If only there was someone who made, or knew how to make, a shift improver

      yea.....but we might need to get better valve springs to prevent floating

      As much as I would love to see it, there is NO WAY that those mods net 50-75hp. However, I can't wait to see the results.

      Here's the PM's we exchanged:

      xstevex:
      So did you ever get the cams from Kent Cams?

      Any details?


      Audacity Racing:
      Yeah, I have all the cams in and haven't had time to dyno them yet, but they seem to fit ok... haven't seen any lathing on the caps yet.


      When I find time (by the end of the year) I'll post details, pics, and dyno info...

      xstevex:
      taken from your thread:
      "I actually have three different cam profiles coming from the mild to pretty gnarly staying on the stock tappets."

      Have you tried all profiles, and they all seem to work good with no floating?

      And we can get the cams for $300, and the Pulley's for $100? So the total is going to be $400?

      Also what type of power gains are you expecting to see on the dyno with the three different profiles?

      My car is a Daily Driver, What would you recommend? I still like HP gains

      And Kent Cams will make these for me if I ask them too?

      Thanks!
      -Steve

      Audacity Racing:
      Yeah, I tried all three profiles... the wildest one has clear float, I'd avoid it unless you get new springs too.


      I'm still working on pricing. I'm hoping to be their US contact for the woo cams. They make cams for all our different engines including my V6, so we'll see what comes.


      As for the middle profile (between the mild and wild) expect around 20 crank hp, 30 with a tune (if you have an SMT6 or SMT 7 or perhaps a megasquirt, MoTeC, AEM, etc)

      xstevex:
      Where would I be able to get a tune? Possibly the dealer?

      Audacity Racing:
      Unfortuantely, we don't have any maps to load onto the stock ECUs. That's why i mention something like an SMT6 or SMT7 (piggy backs) or the bigger full systems.

      xstevex:
      Alright.

      But it runs good with out the tune?

      Audacity Racing:
      So far so good.


      I'll make sure to get the proper timing figured out for stock ECU's too

      xstevex:
      Alright. It sounds like I'll probably buy the Middle profile when it is available. So keep me updated (as well as the rest of the board)!

      Thanks!
