Running cams without SAFC

[Lonewolf64]

Do keydiver chips exist to compensate for bigger cams? I'm trying to keep my setup dead simple, which means Evo 8 fuel pump/ no AFPR with E3 16g and supporting mods with all the compensation through my keydiver chip.

My pertinent mods include:
2g MAS (redesigned intake) w/ Evo Injectors
ETS FMIC
Evo fuel pump/ No AFPR
E3 16g
3 inch turboback exhaust
Keydiver chip with all the goodies.

I want to add HKS 264 cams to the recipe but don't want to do so unless I can avoid adding an engine management setup. Is it possible?

Why not just ask keydiver?

 

I haven't found that cams affect our MAS-based maps very much, other than guys asking for a slightly higher idle rpm. Speed density/MAP-based systems are much more finicky about changes like cams, intakes, exhaust, IMHO.

So to run HKS 264's I wouldn't really need to change my setup?

That is correct.

Those cams will not effect your idle much at all.

The only thing you will see with just a 264 upgrade is that she will not start to fall on its face at 6400 revs. She will pull to 7200.

That will allow you to take the 1/4 mile in 4th gear instead of shifting into 5th before the line.

What about stock Evo VIII cams, will they help up top and are they worth the effort?
