MTI X1 cam anyone?
Just wondering if any of you are running this cam and how you like it? I just ordered the cam kit from MTI and hope to install it this coming week.

I had one in my 02 Z and loved it. Pulled real hard up top and has a nice chop to it. Mine was untuned, so it hated cold starts. Once they're tuned though it clears up.

Did you run the car hard untuned? And if so did you have any issues?

its worth the money for the tune and alot safer when i got my car tuned with the cam i actually had to get bigger injectors because the car ran lean past 6k wich isnt safe plus u could probably bump up ur rev limiter for more power, mine is now at 6900 rpm. |
Awesome! Been wanting to get this cam... Did you have to fly cut or anything? Or do you have different heads? Thanks and congrats on a sweet setup:cheers:
|
Love my X1 cam :thumbs: :cool:
|
I've got the X1, no fly cutting even with my 5.3L stage 2.5 TSP heads. 11.2:1 SCR.

No flycutting, you can actually go quite a bit larger than the X1 without flycutting.
|
what size headers do you guys run with a bigger cam? I posted a thread in the tech section asking because I didnt know if 1 7/8 is only for FI cars or what?
Thanks:cool: |
1 3/4" here, should be plenty for n/a setups for sure.
|
I like the sound of this car.

Thanks:cool: You dont need 1 7/8 unless youre running 550+rwhp which are most of your larger cube and FI cars. I'm still running 1 3/4 headers and they seem to be doing just fine.:thumbs: |
right on! thanks for the info fellas:cheers:

That's NOT the X1? David at MTI said it was just yesterday:bigears Said he was there when the video was shot...
BTW, the back end of your car makes me want to call my girlfriend! Nice:) |
