I'd think about having one custom ground to go with the increased boost and tuned pump I'm working on.

The advanced camshaft and injektor timing does increase the audible sound of combustion slightly (sounds more harsh) but yields great acceleration off-boost.

I think 28° to 30° on the start of delivery is about the point of diminishing returns and 4° (crankshaft) on the cam timing is about the limiting point also.

The later '05' camshaft is a nice upgrade in the earlier engines...Bert
