Schrik 248/256 Cams

[boosted323]

How much power would I be looking at with Schrik FI cams? I have an AA c30 kit with a full exhaust headers and no cats. ESS claims 25-30whp on the M54B30, but what about the M52tu engine?

[Rayce185]

I'd guess 15-20? :dunno:

[boosted323]

I guess thats not to bad...

[malina]

Boosted323, how much power are you making now?
Expect ~20WHP from SCHRICK 248/256 cams.

[boosted323]

282whp. So I will be hitting 300whp? Thats not bad at all.

[Rayce185]

Where did you get 282whp from? :wow:

[sheefo2k]

thats really good power from a 323 bro

dyno graph?

We need a dyno sheet now :rolleyes:

[Rayce185]

I was planning on TS2 with headers, pulleys and MAYBE cams... would I see numbers like that too? 300whp is my goal...

It depends on your software and how well the software can adapt to take advantage of the FI cams. ESS designed their software for those cams. I don't think AA designed their software for those cams. Not to sound negative, but just putting it into perspective. Good Luck! :thumbsup:

ESS software for TS1/2 doesn't have support for FI cams. When adding them one has to update the software as well. Both ESS and AA can do it. :)

It is to assist with the increase in boost pressure as well. Which is why you needed the cams and headers to capitalize on the .5PSI increase in boost. My point is, don't throw it on there and expect gains without new software.

Ill get the dyno graph from VAC. I got a custom tune so I guess thats where I got the most power from. I was shocked myself.

[e popa]

you will probabaly get about 10 to 15hp.

[boosted323]

Im goin to VAC next week cuz my fcuking throttle body boot blew off again. I kinda gut in back on but its still leaking. So ill get my dyno sheet and post it by the end of next week.

[BimmerDude18]

Most cars will pick up 20-30 hp from it.

I've seen multiple 330's net 30hp tuned. I'd be surprised if you couldn't get 25.

[DarkJoker]

dont mean to bust in on someone elses thread but what the power limit a stock M54 (330) motor can hold?

anyone pushed the limits of it yet

[boosted323]

Yeah I can see 25 with the right tune.

[e popa]

When I installed mine AA told me I didnt need a different tune from what I was already running fro the SC.

[boosted323]

How much power did you gain from the cams?

[e popa]

I dont know for sure I should have dynoed before and after but i didnt. I could feel a little in the butt dyno.

[boosted323]

What did you dyno at after?

[e popa]

275. Thats without headers
