    I have his race cam. He ended up having to up my idle due to stalling issues at Red lights. I'll have to see if I still have my dyno before and after charts but I went from 175ish to the wheels to 197ish.

    Have a video of it by chance and what does it idle at now? Also if u do post a link to a video of it can u tell me what exhaust you have. Thank you! Way has my dme right now tuning it. I have every bolt on and have had the crower ns1 cam for a while. His can has a ton more duration than the crower.

    No video, I was the one running the car on the dyno. He upped my idle to 900 seeing i wouldn't stall if I had the AC on. I really need to get a full tune to smooth things out but overall I'm happy with it. I have just about every bolt on as well.

    Here is my current status of the wmw race cam swap. Going in with new rocker arms, upper engine mount, new o ring cam sensor, VC gasket, spark plug tube seals,ddm works silicone red intercooler boots, and a new SC belt. And of course new oil and filter.

    I think he meant to say "Way wouldn't know a cam if he was bludgeoned in the head with one."

    The crower NS1 makes less power than stock on an MCS, so it's difficult to tell what Way's cam is doing. I was thinking exactly the same thing Dave wrote, as soon as I read what you said about how it idled...I'm guessing there's a cam out there with a very similar profile, not naming any names, but it might have an m, w, and r in it although not necessarily in that order. Just conjecture on my part....

    Why is everyone dancing around the fact that any "WMW" branded product is a merely a copy of someone else's hard work.

    I personally enjoyed the knock off of the Vibratechnics mount he had.
    it looked like a 12 year old cut it with his teeth.

    Way makes or flat out copies parts from other vendors and that has been proven over and over.

    He is not called Wal-Mart Motor works for nothing. Is he a vendor here? Nope

    How about scratching off serial numbers and selling it as your own part? That's ok isn't it? I mean it's not really technically copying...

    Could be worse, they could be chinese copies lol. He's always been decent when I order the occasional odds and ends, but I've never bought anything major from him.
