Anybody running an IPD Turbo Performance Cam on their B230FT ? 700

posted by  someone claiming to be Roj on  Thu May 10 12:34 CST 2007 [RELATED]

Hi,

I recently aquired a '95 940 T which has an IPD Turbo Performance cam in it. I haven't had it that long but so far I think I'm dissappointed with the cam. Compared to my old '94 940T with the stock cam, this car seems very sluggish at the low end and completely lacking in low end torque. It's really slow off the line compared to the '94 with the stock cam. This is quite disappointing especially considering the car also has a very nice custom 3" exhaust system and I'm running about 12 psi boost. I was expecting a lot more pep. To be fair though, it performs decently once you get the revs up.

Is that how it is with those particular IPD cams or is there possibly some other thing going on with the car that's affecting the low end power and I'm incorrectly blaming the cam ? I'd like to hear what other people running those cams have experienced.

Thanks,

Roger
