Performance & Compatibility

This camshaft is designed to eliminate the OEM Variable Valve Timing (VVT) system, which becomes a limiting factor in high-performance and forced induction applications. By replacing the VVT phaser with a fixed 3-bolt billet gear, you eliminate the risks associated with VVT timing misalignment and improve reliability under boost. The Stage 2 V2 profile offers superior power gains while maintaining valvetrain stability and reduced wear on valve springs.

Required components include the TSP 3-Bolt Timing Gear and TSP Timing Cover for complete VVT deletion and proper installation. Experience the benefits of consistent cam timing, enhanced drivability, and proven horsepower gains.
