Your PM is full, so I answered here

I understand that you have instal a performance cam. I have also instal now a peformance cam from Calmini. But my car did have more torque or power. On the powerbank i have 70.3 Hp/5064 rmp and 118Nm/3691 rmp. That's the maximum ratio's. And i have a tuned vitara!!


The problem with most Camshafts is they are not
correct lift, lobe center and duration for the engine
in which it's installed.

You can do more harm than good by going too "big"
on the cam, which hutrs lower end performance where
it is wanted in an off road vehicle.

The specs on my cam, as far as I know are
Engle PT-56 grind  low to mid range power
1500-5000 RPM 
lift Intake .271 inch, duration 262*
lift Exhaust .276 inch, duration 270*
lobe center 112*

I had better power with the new cam, but I have
never used a Calmini cam so I cannot help you with
the lack of performance with that one, my best guess
is that the Calmini cam is a higher RPM cam, and you
don't like where the power band is working.


BTW, Does anyone have Specs on the Calmini Cam? I
would be interested in how it compairs to Mine.

Good Luck
