S3 cam spool on 2.3 motor?
Does anyone have any dyno sheets to post for a 2.3 motor using s3 cams preferably using a hta86, but any 35r should give me an idea
Just want to see where it will spool so i can decide if i want to use s2 or s3 cams on my new setup

What size housing is it?
I just dont want to be hitting full boost at 5,500 where i was on a 2.0, kinda makes doing a 2.3 pointless. Im looking for a fun street car more then a dyno queen

R2's arent just drop in cams though. I have a newly built head and if i drop them in and run into coil bind/ or seat clearance issues(which is HIGHLY likely).... im screwed and would have to change to new parts
Thats what worries me

I'm running S3s on my 2.3 with a 6466. I'm seeing 40psi right at 5400-5600 and it holds all the way to 9K. I noticed little to no decrease in spool coming from the S2 cams. The top end increase in power is extremely noticeable. It spins the wheels badly in 3rd and they sometimes slip in 4th on poor road conditions. I'm running 265/35r18 Hankook RS2s and need to upgrade badly.
