TD04/Delta 272 CAM Install complete!


Recommended Posts

It's been awhile but I've got it all done and have been driving it for the last few weeks.

 

 

I got the TD04-13g Turbo installed onto my modified up-pipe, used a Stock WRX Downpipe and had to slightly clearance the lower crossmember to get it not to rub while going down the road, I got the Delta 272 cams and I love the extended power band I got with them, pulls hard from 3k to 7k :)

 

The only thing that sucks about the 272 cams is the lifter clearance changes allot, and finding the right shim to make up the difference is a PITA!!!!!!! The shims they sent me didnt work and ended up cracking about a few miles and the ticking would get worse as they would flatten, so I used a combination of DIMES and some other SS Flat Washers that were thicker, the result is much quieter valve noise but still ticks a bit, but not nearly as bad as before, so I'm going to live with it for now since I have yanked the CAM Cases 5 times allready to adjust them!!!!! :mad:

 

All in all the car is a beast and I have yet to loose to anyone!

 

So far I'm running 10psi of boost and the thing just begs for more, I will keep everyone updated and hopefully I will be at WCSS 8!

 

Enjoy

 

Kill List so Far :

 

Nissan 350Z 6-speed (5 cars from a 30mph roll)

Nice! are you running a boost controller or is stock boost on the TD04-13G wastegate 10psi ?

 

I'm welding my up pipe and down pipe today or tomorrow so I'll have my TD04L on and ready to go for WCSS 8 perhaps we'll have to find some open highway on the way there or back :burnout::grin:

Mine will be put back together this weekend, YAY!

 

I'll be running the 260 cams from Delta with a high compression SPFI block, TD04, IC and a lot of other goodies as well. Too bad I won't be able to make it to the show this year. Kinda a far drive for me and couldn't get the time off approved. Next year though, I'll be there. :banana:
