Jim Wolf S2 Cams Installed
For every mod that I believe works or doesn't work, I have supporting data, documentation, etc. I'm not just pulling this stuff out of the air. A lot of mods I think are BS are ones I've run on other cars and have done dyno and 1/4 mile testing.
Just an update. I have just returned from UpRev where Richard and Jared tuned my car with Osiris. My baseline dyno was 222.68 whp and 199.84 wtq running an insane average AFR of 15:1 across the rpm range and as high as 16:1 before the car cut power. Run conditions were 61.23 degrees, 29.76 in-Hg, 15% humidity, and SAE 0.97. After tuning the car hit a maximum of 242.64 whp and 216.37 wtq, and as expected the car gained power over baseline all the way to redline. Run conditions were 67.64 degrees, 29.72 in-Hg, 10% humidity, and SAE .97. As some of you may pick up right away from my previous posts, these numbers pretty much match the numbers from my pulls in Houston before the camshafts were installed, and pretty close to what my car dynoed after install, at least initially. While both shops use Dynojet, I think the only accurate way to determine whether or not my car really made power with the camshafts and tune is to go and dyno back at my shop in Houston, though I'm a bit hesitant since they told me my AFR was fine at 13.6:1 when in fact my car was knocking like a diesel engine. My car ran so hot and lean it ate through 3 refills of coolant in 1 week, but after tuning things seem fine now.

Sorry no audio but Richard will email my dyno graph later if I can't get my copy scanned. The car doesn't sound too much different but it has a slightly lumpy idle. I chose the mild cams with 256 duration.
