Description
Integrated Engineering is proud to offer the second generation of VW/Audi 1.8T 20V performance camshaft sets. 1.8T factory cams are tuned to a very low RPM operation with small turbochargers resulting in an engine that struggles to make power in the high RPM range with larger aftermarket turbochargers. Integrated Engineering camshafts re-tune the sequencing of the valves, allowing for more airflow at high RPM.
Version 2 of IECVA1 street / strip camshafts feature new IE proprietary cam profiles and center lines. These new grinds result in further increased performance, cleaner idle properties, and a more linear power band. IECVA1 camshafts are an aggressive street / strip setup intended for turbocharged applications using turbochargers in the 500-850bhp size range.
These camshafts are the only sets on the market designed by engineers who truly specialize in the 1.8T application. As a result, they are much more finely tuned to the specific needs of these engines and produce extrordinary results. They are CNC ground to exacting standards from camshaft profile data exclusive to IE and designed by our engineering staff. By eliminating the troublesome internal adjusters, and incorperating OE style timing marks, we have not only made these camshafts reliable, but also very simple to install.
We have incorporated an extensive program of dyno testing to optimize these camshafts for the engine setups people actually run. IE camshafts are carefully designed for optimum valvetrain harmonics and safe, long life of your components, yet engine dyno testing yielded gains of up to 97 peak bhp at 22psi. Since this set can make power well past 7500 rpms, an Integrated Engineering matched spring and retainer set (PN: IEVTVA2) is highly recommended.
