Default AUIII XR6 VCT Cams?

Hello.


Wondering if there has been anyone that has gone down the path of fitting aftermarket cams to the AU engine with VCT?

If so, what was your experiences?

I am thinking of going down this path, though would also require either a J3 if it supports the VCT or an aftermarket computer too help adjust the VCT too suit cam.

I am aware of people disconnecting VCT or removing the VCT etc. Though I don't want to go down that road, not yet anyway.

I would say it is possible, though anyone else have any experience?


Thanks

Joe @ cresent motor sport in Sydney has done a few regrind cams. a stage 1/2 cam can be fitted and doesn't require a tune. however for best results you would tune (most use SCT X3 Cal flashers but i hear J3 is good to)
a Stage 3 cam needs valve springs upgraded. unsure if it needs tuning.

best to talk to him but i've thought about it my self.

Yeah, I've seen your posts man on you build thread. been watching you hahaha.

Wade has told me he can do them, though the cam i am after will require chip/tune/flash. I have also got in contact with T.I Performance about their J3 chips an they also state that the J3 supports VCT to do the tune. So looks like I will be going down that path.

If you go through with it, let me know your results.
