They are the same cams, amazing what can be done in the hands of a good tuner.

This is interesting!

I'm intrigued as well, I have been emailing Mace Engineering for last two nights on info.. they are advertising gains of 30kw - which is 40.79 hp with a tune, still pretty good power increase and I think torque is even higher. They are going to email me the hp/torque numbers. Got a price of $1090.00 shipped to Florida for set. They also sell or lend special tool set that makes the job a lot easier and shaves the time down to 5-6 hour job. It requires roughly a $300 refundable deposit once its returned. I'm trying to find out if a local installer has this tool already.. I'll pass along any further info I get on this as well....

Appreciate the info man! Are these cams FI safe? Do they make a FI version?

Did they say which tool(s)? I have both the EN-48313, and EN-49982 timing chain retention tools.

I think they have a FI version also ..... the tool has no part # but there are two pieces to the kit and seems that's what they are... you can see pic on their website - Mace Engineering..

KMPrenger · 04-17-2015, 03:56 PM

So we need this tuner to pass along his secrets...otherwise we aren't going to be able to enjoy these results here in the states!!

Once that happens, someone out there needs to do a full LFX build.

Cams, tune, intake, JacFab spacer, JacFab intake, high flow cats, and exhaust.

340+ rwhp anyone????? By the way, that seems high to me, but if the dyno test shown above is remotely accurate to reality, and that 335rwhp number is correct, I can see the JacFab intake pushing that up another 10+ HP or more. What makes me think it could be accurate is that the before dyno numbers seem pretty much spot on with what I'd expect. That's L99 V8 rwhp numbers, or better.

Kuzman....get to work for us. lol. Also, I'm assuming this was not ported heads, but just cams right?

crc91 · 04-17-2015, 03:59 PM

I don't see why this company couldn't do remote tuning ? Hmmm some one needs to contact them to figure out what could be done.

DGM · 04-17-2015, 04:31 PM

sent an email on remote tuning ,will post when I get info.
That was on stock heads - no porting...

The two expensive tools they list are the part numbers that I mentioned above. I have those ones. I do not have the cheaper of the 3 tools.

You can sometimes find these on eBay for a good deal

The car had no internal work done apart from the cam. With the AUD-USD the way it is at the moment it`s the perfect time to buy Mace stuff.
