I have a copy of the volvo cam timing tool which is the same tool for all the volvo white engines. V40, 850/S/V70, and our 960/S/V/90.

Small movements of the cam often are used by tuners to optomize characteristics of a particular engine. That is one of the parameters a "dyno-tuner" has to play with.

If you have a tool to allow you to return to the basic factory setting I think you only have knowlege and fun to gain by trying it.

That said, I'll bet with the smoother idle you have less over-lap and the peak power will be reduced?????????????
