Pair of brand new HKS 272deg. duration 8.1mm lift camshafts for 4AGE 16v

I have a pair of new, in their original boxes, HKS 272 degree duration, 8.1mm lift camshafts for the 4AGE 16v engine that I was going to fit in my engine but have had a change of plans, so they are available for sale. The part numbers for the camshafts are: Inlet: HKS 2202-RT097, Exhaust: HKS 2202-R...

Re: Ideal intake length for stock 4AGE 16v bigport?

Thanks again Jondee86 and Oldeskewltoy. So, as i said in an earlier post, I need to keep the engine stock until the car has passed the individual vehicle approval test I have to put it through here in the UK. Due to the unique design of the car, on the exhaust side, i will have to fit a custom 4-2-1...

Re: Ideal intake length for stock 4AGE 16v bigport?

Those ITBs look great Jondee86 but I think I'd be more comfortable not sourcing mine from the opposite side of the world, in case I have any issues. Omex is 18 miles from where I live and Jenvey 40 miles, so I know it will be easy to get help/parts from them should I need it. Don't blame you promoti...

Re: Ideal intake length for stock 4AGE 16v bigport?

Thanks again for the replies guys. Oldeskewltoy, my plan has always been to get some more power out of the engine once I finish the car build, as the emissions requirements will be very tight. Ironically, once it's registered, I think as a "vehicle of undetermined age" regular DOT test wil...

Re: Ideal intake length for stock 4AGE 16v bigport?

Hi Jondee86, Thanks for all that. Realising now that when I bought those cams, during a business trip to the US several years ago because they are so much cheaper than in the UK, I was focusing too much on duration and not enough on lift. As you say, its about making more power while still having an...

Re: Ideal intake length for stock 4AGE 16v bigport?

Thanks for your reply Oldeskewltoy. I asked the question because, having bought these cams I'm growing a little concerned that they at be too extreme for the kind of driving I want to do i.e. fast road driving and on track days. I don't want a race engine and, while I want to boost the torque power ...

Re: Ideal intake length for stock 4AGE 16v bigport?

Thanks for the reply Jondee86, that's a great explanation and a calculator I have not seen in my searches. The length you calculated makes much more sense than the ones i was seeing. A few questions if you don't mind: 1. Not that it makes a huge difference, but I thought peak power on stock bigport ...

Ideal intake length for stock 4AGE 16v bigport?

Hi guys, I'm hoping someone can help me figure out an intake issue. I'm building a Lotus 7 type car and am putting a stock 7 rib block big port 4AGE 16v in it. Im keeping it stock until the car is finished and road registered except that the limited engine bay space means the TVIS has had to go and ...
