Typical to how our society is. Don't get what you want in 0.5 seconds and you are off talking Smack all dayy.r Yet you never brought anything to the table in the first place. You start a fire and cry about the heat and blame everyone around you for letting you buy matches. Sounds like one other guy on here too...

HKS Starquest G54B T Performance Cam Specs?
JohnnyWadd replied to Starfighterpilot's topic in Just plain ol' B.S.
A bigger lobe is more surface area of contact. Lengthwise the contact on the slipper is in increased. The degree to which the spring is compressed is now greater so pressure is increased. I did not make this stuff. Just like this "cushion" you mention on the hydraulics. What is the cushion doing? It's lower the pressure of the contact. Am I saying that in a few thousand miles you can put a micrometer on it and be able to measure one then thousands? Probably not. But it's simple engine stuff here. Using a cam with more lift and more duration has the potential for more wear. Hmmm ...not to be a smart aleck her but wear occurs anywhere there is metal to metal contact. And yes wear is going to be greater on the lift and peak part as you say , but why is that true? Because the contact pressure is higher there. Just like the HKS cam is going to have higher on those areas. That what I was saying. The increased pressure = increased wear (potential wear) High point on the lobe wears faster we agree on that right? So you make that point on the lobe even higher and wider = increased pressure and increased metal to metal contact = more wear. -
For any transmission. You cannot tell me you are going to drive in such a manner that your foot action will do the work of a blow off valve. Perhaps sometimes. But skilled driving is not about keeping the throttle pegged and quick shifting and dumping the clutch just to prevent compressor stall. You say you are keeping it floored and banging gears? Ok that's fine. But you also said you where getting turkey gobble, so having a blow off valve would have prolonged turbo life. Really over engineering this whole thing. It's just a simple compressor bypass valve. It sees manifold and charge line pressure and manages it. Saves stress on the turbo manual or automatic. Sometimes you are going to loose traction when you drive like you mentioned flooring it and dumping the clutch. Better of with a proper valve on there.

HKS Starquest G54B T Performance Cam Specs?
JohnnyWadd replied to Starfighterpilot's topic in Just plain ol' B.S.
The HKS cam is not any different...all cams rub on the slippers so not even sure what you mean. All cams will wear in the way you describe. The hks cam has even bigger lobes so wear is likely to happen faster. What I mean about the mech cam is that versus a worn hyd part with similar miles, it will likely still have less wear and measure out with a micrometer better. -

Ask Runnel he ran it for a while. I will link him this thread. You realize the mechanical cam has a slightly larger profile right? So running a mechanical cam and lifters is a slight upgrade.(especially if your whole motivation is the wear on your hydraulic cam , which is the most used cam in our cars) Every time I mention it all the naysayers chime in with how little the difference is etc etc. But the fact is it has more lift and duration. -

I had hks cam , sold it to Runnel. Lobe wear can be fixed by running a mechanical cam. -
