so I just picked up a fresh ap1 head with all ferrera parts from vduber today, I have an ap2 block, what would be the best combo for boost, ap1 intake with ap2 exhaust? I remember a while people talking about this, but I have no idea myself, also I'll add I wanna bring my redline out to 9000 on my next tune and set up. thanks

Yes, AP1 intake cam with AP2 exhaust cam I'm running it now, nowhere near your new power level though

 

Whats the advantage of using ap1 intake and ap2 exhaust? Wouldnt buying aftermarket cams be better?

 

With that head, 10k is doable.

 

The head will be fine. But do the math on the piston speeds at 10,000rpm with an F22c bore and stroke. It's scary. It'd be foolish to rev that high on stock cams, you aren't going to be making more power up there. Just wasted wear and tear.


I ran all combinations of stock cams, and ended up with an AP1 intake and AP2 exhaust.....when my car was daily driven. 9300rpm is where we had our high rev limit.

 

thanks for the replys guys, well 9000 is fine by me, so it looks like ap1 intake ap2 exhaust is the way to go, anyone else running this combo have any feed back?

 

with stock cams, your motor leveled at at what rpm?

It was starting to fall off at 9000.

Now, it never stops....haha.

 

i know how that feels

 

What are you gaining and sacrificing by dropping an F20 intake cam into an F22? I never bothered to research what the differences in lift/duration/overlap is between them and how that effects these engines differently.
