We have been testing the Schrick stage 1 cams for a few months now and after a few setbacks and issues not related to cams we have some preliminary results.
These are not the final results as I'm still fighting a random misfire which we think is an injector issue.
This is on Brintech Customs heart breaker dyno.
366 rkw run on stock cams at 27 to 28 psi on e20
372 rkw run on stage 1 cams at 22 to 23 psi on e20
This equates to around 600 to 650 us rwhp
One thing we found if your car has issues running these cams, these will amplify those and your tuner better know what he is doing thanks @V8bait.
Goal was to reach 400rwk but I think the limitation is 93 and will never get there but will keep trying.
The surprising thing is we made the same power or 5 psi less boost which will help the turbos last much longer.
Running a small blend like e40 will help run even less boost whilst retaining the same power output and not sacrificing reliability.
The engine specs.
9.5 to 1 compression
PPM forged rods and pistons
Stock head
Shrick Stage 1 cams
Baffled Sump
Vac Motorsports head studs
Vtt Spline lock v2
Otherwise internally stock with no fancy block work or anything like that.
They reopen the track late September so we should get some trap speeds then but aim is to hit 130mph on e20.
Nothing really special but enough power to break our 2nd gearbox where the 3rd gear just exploded into pieces.
We are going to lower the initial boost and mid range eventually to prolong the life of the gearbox but atm we are not holding back.
The boost is capped initially on spool to stop the car breaking traction as its a major issue.
Why we also installed the cams was to get the car to keep making power to redline whilst the stock ones just taper off.
Once you drive on the babies you will never go back to stock as they just pull so hard from idle and make 20 psi by 2600rpm caped on VTT Gc's 2.0
