B16a2 Blox aftermarket camshafts My question; a friend installed these cams.... Now it runs like crap and he wants to give me the motor... But I haven't had this sort of issue before and an looking for some advice or possibly a .cal to look at. I am seeing low vacuum at idle (expected), but its on col4-5/row3-4... And no matter what fuel value, it acts like hell. I moved base timing to that area and it helped, but anything going on or off throttle is pure crap until 1250-2000 rpm... Bogging, etc. So if anyone has a Crome .bin, or ectune .cal I can look at: something with a moderately aggressive cam, it would greatly help me in figuring out this issue because it became a $400 b16a swap for me just now! He's gonna drop in his gsr.

may have bent valves. do a leak down.. Blox cams should idle like stock.
