Seems the cam timing and ignition timing has been moved to far up the rev range! Yes you can adjust the cams...but then your map will be useless and will have to have it mapped again, did he set the cams or you?

Yes you do it with the verniers, and just live mapped it? dose it have a nock sensor? I cant imagine its done right without being on a rolling road, with proper nock equipment! I wouldn't drive the car if I was you!

It shouldn't need a nock sensor on stand alone management, all the ignition timing is in the map, I cant see how he can set that up on the road, without using nock equipment, did you see him live map it? any headphones or anything he plugged into the actual engine bay?

So the ignition timing is at standard, do you know what cams they are? after market cams have different ideal TDC to standard ones, that is why the power is so far up the rev range id imagine
