Tomei cams hate me

 

do you have the JWT S2 cams in stock? how do i order?

 

yes we do. They are being added to the website today. They are the same price as the S1 cams on our website. If you would like to order, just put C2 in the comments section: http://www.forgedperformance.com/sto...cat=264&page=1

 

Good luck with that Sharif if anyone can do installs correctly it will be Forged Performance.

 

Price listed is just for the TT kit? install extra correct?

 

ok thanks i see it added now. i think the S2 description needs to be fixed though... i thought they were 256 / .430" according to ben

http://www.forgedperformance.com/sto...cat=264&page=1

 

That's correct. Installation is $2600

 

hey sharif are those JWT S2 specs correct on your site? according to ben, it should be 256 duration / .430" lift. also, the idle issue is supposed to be resolved with the S2 cams...

 

You are correct. My assistant just corrected it. Sorry for the confusion.

 

I have been seriously contemplating the JWT. I don't plan on building my motor now, but I do plan to within the next 6 months to a year. I don't see wanting more then a little over 500whp in the end and 400whp would be plenty for now. That is within the regular JWT kit, or would it make more sense to go with the upgraded turbos?

 

For 500whp, definately stick with the basic JWT turbos.

 

yes, i've seen on this board some "upgraded turbos option" for the jwt tt?At what hp you consider upgrading is good?

what are those turbos ? the z32 700bb?? i've seen jwt regulars are custom gt25, are upgraded gt28?? gt30??
what about their spooling/lag?
what is the extra cost for the upgraded kit?


thx

 

700bb is the upgrade...enough airflow for 700-750whp.

 

I have heard of engines blowing from turbo kits. How different is this turbo setup from all the others? I am really interested, however, I'm hesitant because my car is a daily driver. Is it reliable, or is it recommended to build the motor? Along with reliability I want it to pass smog here in Cali. Am I asking too much? Can I get a PM as to the cost of the setup and labor. Thank U

 

Properly tuned and instaled turbo kits are very safe, when power is kept to a reasonable level, and you avoid over-revving the engine too much.

Since you are in SoCal, you should speak to Sam at GT Motorsports, since JWT does not allow us to ship the kits. They must be installed at an authorized JWT installer...and GT Motorsports is one of those.

 

When you say over revving, are you talking about redline, or long period of high rpm's just before redline?

Any authorized shops in SF area? Thank you.

 

thx so you consider upgrading after 500hp is a good thing.

i assume those turbo can be delivered at extra cost.

anyway , i've watched pics of those on jwt website, and it seems that aps 3.5" test pipes could simply bolt on (same bolt patern out of the turbine), can someone confirm that?

 

ZCarGarage has tuned and installed the JWT kit...I would check with Rob.

By overevving, I am referring to extended periods of 6600rpm (or bouncing off the limiter repeatedly) +....many of us run higher redlines on the stock engine, which might not be a very good idea with the non-rev-up motors and FI.
