<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (hamhead @ Apr 20 2005, 07:19 PM)</div><div class='quotemain'>^^ Yeah really... I don't think it would idle too much different. Computer should be able to adjust really fast to it.
Also why I'm tempted to go to the Hyundai dealership and get a brand new one for like $160.00... that way I know what I paid for. You can't really see that much of a difference between them.

Why pay so much, you can get the 1.8L cam from Kspec for $109. Shoot an email to David or post on the forums over there. I am positive that it'll be cheaper and will arrive sooner.

Wait at least around 200miles before you gun it...just in case.

the 1.8 cam is a subtle mod... you really will not notice it until you take the engine to redline. You will notice that the power peak is SLIGHTLY moved up some.

make sure to reset your ECU.
i think once we finally get that load of 1.8ECUs you will feel it a lot more, otherwise it's a pretty subtle mod.
