thanks for the writeup! I had been looking at doing the 2.0 cams setup, I might go for it now that I have something to refer to. Even though it's a big job, it looks doable.
I know it's best to tune on the dyno, but is there even an alternative aside from pure guesswork? Like, could you do it based on something that is reading knock retard? Just curious. I ask because we don't have any decently priced dynos in my area that I'm aware of.
Just to let everyone know you MUST put on cam gears on, some might think you don't need it put, we lost alot of power higher end with out cam gears, might I even say the car is slow with the 2.0L cams (Now am gears are on the way).

I noticed a huge drop in top end with 0/0. With the exhaust significantly retarded and the intake slightly advanced, there was a pretty nice gain in the top end from factory 2.4l camshsafts.

Don't recall ever using sealant on the cam caps...
Well, you are supposed to.

99% of your content changes weekly or monthly. You're simply a very unreliable source for anyone and honestly have zero business adding your input outside of your homoerotic California thread. Simply because your ass could feel a change in top-end power with the 2.0l cams means squat, then you prance around and act like you're the only one who's tuned 2.0l cams.
I'm not the only one who knows what you say half the time is utter crap; your opinions shouldn't even qualify as valid. Now hurry, go make another thread in your California forum! It's always nice searching for new posts and seeing that you've done jack with your day but sit and make new random threads in your regional forum.

right, cus when i gain 15-20hp everywhere, and 25 at redline, it means jack squat when i had the dyno graph to prove it.
and youre singing the same ol song.
