Turbo City claims it will raise your vacuum if you have a modified cam, has anyone ever tried one? What improvements did you notice?

I would like to know this question too. I noticed it on their site but didn't know if it was worth it or not either. Anyone know of anyone that has tried this?

i ran a 224/234 (equiv to 214/224 in a 305) 498/520 cam in my 350 with tbi and no map adjustment was necessary.

Unless you're getting really crazy with it you should be ok.

the map adjuster is crap

get a custom chip instead


and chevyboy, to answer for shane, he ran a 13.6 with the 214/224 cam , holley dual plane projection manifold, and pizza cutter tires

I think he only got to run the 224/234 single plane in the 1/8th mile
