Anyone running a Helix cam
At 450 rwhp my 01 H.O. is running pretty warm egts with comp box in upper levels i was wondering how the helix 1 and 2 cams would do for reduceing egts. I would like to be able to run with box on kill and be ok , im running a htb2 62/12 at 42psi. Also the manual fuel pump would be perfect.

The best thing I found after having a Helix 2 cam installed was how much better trottle response became. Improved fuel economy and helping the turbo get going is the main reason I bought one.

Anyone wanting to twist over 3200 RPM and over 45 PSI should have the springs. Even the stock springs and cam can begin valve float at these levels. Back pressure level plays a part as well.
Yes, you can change out that goofy electric pump and use a mech pump. A complete kit is available at a very competitive price when you compare the cost of the aftermarket electrics.
