1993 ka24de Forge CP pistons and Stage 2 Crower Cam

[youngun21a]

Just Finish Rebuild on my 93 240sx with Forge Piston and stage 2 Crower cams,but See no Difference from Stock With nothing on but a Intake. Did I do something wrong or need to Tune or Dyno it, it's N/A

[matt4pl]

did you break in your motor? forged piston with what compression? and what gas you running in it? details will get you better answers

[youngun21a]

Did the break in following instruction on this forum, Compression is 9.0:1, and using 93 octane fuel.also installed a walboro fuel pump,

[matt4pl]

so you lowered the compression and expected to gain power? not how it works unless theres boost involved. crower 2's na or turbo cams?

[g35paul]

seems to me someone did all this work and $$$ but did no research

[sunnys14]

Lowered compresion = less power than stockBetter cams = more power than stockLowered compression + better cams = Back to stock

[youngun21a]

that sucks,well at least I'm in the right place to learn,and did learn things about my engine that I didn't know before,and should had research more on the compresion and the pro and cons about them,ohh well next time should be different,still the like the sound of my cams,

[matt4pl]

turbo's like lowered compression you know... sell the NA cams, get a set of turbo ones or put the stock ones back in, and boost that puppy, just my .02 though

[mcfizzle]

Or switch to high-comp pistons.

Hey, I have to give you props for doing the mods yourself and getting everything running properly again.

[youngun21a]

thanks the only two proablems I had was with the shop they put the cams in wrong had to send them back so they could do them write cause on the Crower Cams you have to switch them around the intake with the exhaust and the exhaust with the intake,the other thing was the timing,on the distributor was like around 180degress off,then I check on the forum on how to set the timing right and bam in turn on ,the first time,and your right i might have to swith to High-comp piston so I should start saving my pennies again,
