TURBO CAMS ???

[EZ_4_FUN]

Hey Guys,

Quick question. Is it possible that these exist? I was told the cams off a 91 millenia were
slightly different or could be regrinded to give more power when used with a turbo instead of the ZE cams. To be alittle more specific, maximizes power/boost from approx 2500 to @ 6000 rpm.

Something along these lines, I could get the numbers off the cams and post it if need be.

Let me know if anyone has any insight on this topic.

Appreciated!

There is a guy on Probetalk that sells turbo cams.
Mike Selli? Setti? Someone correct me.
I think Interprep has some cams as well that may be well suited for F/I.

Yup its,Mike Selli, you should check the probetalk.com bulkbuy forum he usually runs a BB on his cam regrinds.

thanks

Thank guys! any idea what cam he uses for the regrind?

[mxer4eva]

Do you mean cam or cam profile? He just uses any KL series cam that you provide him to regrind, if not you will be charged a core charge.

mike seli doesn't make turbo regrinds. there is a lot of testing to be done but no one so far wants to be the guinee pig for that one. newayz Interprep makes the best streetable cams and they are for n/a applications. I would us the kl-01 cams if i were to go turbo as they are less aggressive and more forgiving on boost. just so u know, putting in new cams is not a bolt on mod. you have to tune your car on a $dyno$ to get the maximum potential out of them.

Thanks.. I wasnt sure if they made turbo cams or not.

Thanks for all your input. I did some investicating myself and discovered that mike selli only uses the ze or 03 cams as cores and regrinds them. He also doesn't have anything for a turbo setup at the momment.

So im still stuck as to what these cams are. I was told by a good source, that they exist and that he has a set. I still don't have the numbers off the cams but i can get that by the weekend. HE says that the cores are from a 91-92 millenia. He also said it was only one year that the millenia cams were different??

Any ideas on that guys?

there were no 91-92 millenia's. If you are looking to turbo a klze then I'd worry more about the tranny and getting some heavy duty axles. Also you will need to go stand alone. I am also debating to go Turbo on my ze but my tranny is barely up to the task for just the ze so until I find a lsd and the money to do it right. It looks to be a lost cause where drivability is concerned. Over 250 whp on a fwd car w/o lsd is definatly an accident waiting to happen.

the 91-94 millenias were not sold in north america, so we wont have ANY specs on the engines, neither will mazda U.S.A. or Mazda Canada.
If you have access to the guy, ask him what the stampings are on the cams.

they might be good because of the supper long duration of the intake and exhaust lobes, that meens there is alot of material that can be removed from the lobe so you can get the profile that you want. but I dont know what the lift is.

So...

I got some info:

they are off a 92 ZE. One of the first ZE models?
the stampings on the cams are:
KL 421
" 431
" 441
" 451

Any ideas guys? Oh yeah and they are not regrinded! Could these be better/different than any other year KLZE??

Has anyone heard of these cams??

[EZ_4_FUN]
