even better scan the printouts so we can see how it moved the power around.

Re: Jim wolf cams...

Maybe not too much of a gain in power, but a major gain in powerband. You know that little(lol little) drop off at 5800rpm? Yea, that is gone. You'll find yourself staying in it until you hit the rev limit(7k+). So just the ability to rev higher will provide gains due to simple physics of a pump spinning faster. But the pickup in powerband is what will be the best gain.

A cheaper alternative is using two exhaust cams from a S13 KA24DE.
