well ive managed to find the cams on Toda's site..
http://www.toda-racing.co.jp/en/product ... shaft.html
these are mine..
Angle (Valve Lift)
♦14111-K20-03A - Intake 245(9.2) / 295(13.0) / 240(8.7)
♦14121-K20-03A - Exhaust 240(8.9) / 290(12.5) / 235(8.4)
doesnt say anything about Cam angles.. all it does it say is:
♦Programmable ECU with tunable VTC required. Customers discretion required on selecting an ECU.

Find the IPS cam closest to it and see if there is a corresponding calibration to start with.

From what i can see the IPS-K2 Cams are the closest..
i really wish i could get my map off the ECU to see what its like..

keep a close eye on the A/F ratio and knock count.

ok chaps sorry for the long delay.
ive been busy at work :P
i havent got round to putting the new base map on the car.. simply because im scared of what will happen, and seen as this is my daily driver to and from work.. and i have no way of putting the map thats on now back on if this goes pairshaped..
is there any reason why i have been told i cant use a 0 degrees cam angle?
how long do you need a datalog for?
and is there any other settings i should use first off so i dont melt my engine lol!
