I tell you guys what replace your cams ASAP!!! I still can't get over the difference the hks ones have made!! I am thinking that tree branches would have worked better than stock 3S cams lol. Also I went the route of trying to mod the CT26 that was a HUGE and costly mistake!! Do not let anyone convince you other wise the CT26 is JUNK.

love the car. welcome to the site.
how much power is it making at the wheels? hows the idle with those cams on a stock ecu? do you have any piggy back to tune with, or are you just using the factory ecu with upgraded injectors and nothing else?

I want to make love to your car, whats her number?
Although, I'd go with some gunmetal rims with a polished lip, but hey, she still looks beautiful with the gold. |
