I have a few mods on my car. On my last dyno I made real good horsepower but my torque is only at 216, which is anemically low for the 3.5. My mods as far as performance goes is a short ram wai, jwt s1 cams, headers, udp, b-pipe, safc2, and a TS ecu. So far i have been through 3 maf sensors, one 02 sensor, and replaced 1 coil pack. Plugs are original and the fuel system components have never been messed with, and the original KS is still in the car. I know the cams cause a loss on the low end but I'm short about 30lb-ft of torque! I should not lose that much torque to a very mild cam swap. My car is real sluggish off the line, I have to rev the rpm's way up to get decent acceleration. Once I hit about 3500-4000 rpm's say good bye cuz the car takes off. Im stumped and rather perplexed by my very bad 1st gear acceleration. Its really bothering me so I could use some intelligent opinions and suggestions as to the possible problems and fixes for the problems. Thank you very much gentleman (and ladies). BTW, this car will not see any track time till I get this problem solved.

I just saw this thread. I wish I could help you with your loss of torque. I wonder if it's the JWT flywheel that is giving you problems down low. Although I can see the torque being a concern, your hp is way up there. Why not go to the track and see what times you can run! How does the car feel throughout the entire powerband, besides down low and up top? I am really interested in those cams. How much of a difference did you notice with them? Is the price worth it? I was looking at your dyno and you have 50 more hp than I do at 6500 rpm. That is just plain crazy. I'll bet that thing pulls so hard at high rpm. Put it this way, I would take your low torque with the high hp numbers over what my car is dishing out anyday!

how much HP is your car pushing now? and how much do those cams go for?
