Cam timing adjustments without dyno
Is it viable to make cam timing changes when road tuning?
Doesn't look like any local shops have experience with this platform so I might be SOL.

Once your in the ball park, the power variations with minor changes will be well within the error range for run to run variation. My suggestion is to get fuel and timing dialed on the road then go to the dyno to do cam timing and then touch up fuel and timing, if you are trying to save dyno time that is. Or better yet, start with a base map that is close to your setup. Whats your parts list? If your stock then just use one of the oft basemaps and don't worry about dyno time.

Perrin filter and inlet hose, nameless DP catted and resonated, Nameless header here soon. Possibly the axle back with an extra resonator.
I will probably start with the OFT EL stg2 map but I'm sure the cam timing will be different. I'm at 4500' so my fuel and base timing will be off as well.

i have a very simple method of tuning cams, whether on the road or otherwise. not very scientific, but it works.
log a few pulls... calculate ve... make a change... if it improved ve do more of that, if not do the opposite. with sd it's even easier... just don't change your ve map and see where you go lean/rich. fix the ve there to get the afr back in line the do more of the same.

If you have a good basemap I'd just look at full throttle changes and then smooth out the map. Doing partial throttle just won't be possible on the road.
If Shiv's maps are the same as the others I've seen, the top load cells are the same throughout the RPM range.

1 - I got a higher value of 123% of VE at 4083RPM, and most of the time over 100% : not bad for a NA ! Are my numbers right ? 2 - Load curve is quiet similar to VE one, is it a good approximation ? I have a simple formula to calculate VE approximately for NA in metric : VE approx = ( MAF / 1.2 ) x 60 / RPM MAF = mass air flow (gram/s) / 1.2 = 1 liter of air weight 1.2 gram at 10°C * 60 to convert in minutes -> real number of liter inhale / mn / RPM (cause a 2 liter engine theoretical deplacement is 1 liter / round !) On the graph, VRE with complicate formula for pressure correction, VRE approx describe below, and load comparison https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2J...it?usp=sharing |

123% would be really hard to do, that's like giant air funnel snorkeling in volumes of air to your intake, WS6 Ram-Air style.

Some smart arse gave me this formula to use to calculate VE:
[MAF in g/s] / (([MAP in kPa] x 1000)/(287.05 x ([IAT in C] + 273.15))x1000))/(121.9254 x [RPM]/3456x0.0283/60)x100 MAP can easily be converted from bar to kPa by multiplying by 100 if that's all you've logged.
