Boosted lq4 cam advice
#11
Update: I ended up going with a cheap Elgin cam: specs are 220/224 .575 lift 112 lsa and pac1218 springs. Engine has about 100 miles on it since the rebuild, it's a stock gen 3 lq4 with gen 4 rods and pistons and file fit rings. The problem is it really struggles to build boost and I'm not sure if it is due to cam choice or if something else is wrong with the motor. I expected boost to be down because of the bigger cam, but I have yet to hit 4 psi and I don't want to push it in case something else is wrong.

Tune was the stock vortech tune that comes in their kit, pretty sure it detonated because they didn't relocate the iat, it is still in the maf, but I will be moving it before doing any boost tuning.

That's not an issue, it has a recirculating bpv, and the only issue with this set up it the iat in the maf. I'm tuning the truck now, ve tuning is done, just starting on maf tuning.
