Message	in general on most cars are designed for smooth idle/higher vacuum. By increasing the intake and exhaust over lap you can sometimes find additional power due to a scavenging effect but at the expense of vacuum/smooth idle. Also with adjustable cam sprockets you can shift the power band around. I'd like to have SZ dyno tune my stock cams...hopefully soon.
