| | Posted : 14 Nov 2013 - 07:07 Post title : 1700 cams in a 1600 ?? | | | Hi all I had an interesting conversation with my local triumph service tech today . I rang him to get a quote on fitting a big bore kit to my my t bird. I got quoted $1300 to fit full kit But he made the suggestion to just fit the 1700 cams to my 1600 .He said he,s done a few now and it really wakes the bike up and makes them a lot more revvy .he reckon with the 1700 cams, tors and filter they make the same HP as a 1700 but obviously not the torque (less cubes).He said the bikes he,s done the owners have been rapped with the improvement. So its given me something to think about .Anyone out there had this done?? Whats your thought guys??

I priced the cams and both cams come to about $900 where as the whole big bore kit is only a $100 more so better off buying the kit anyway .But my thought is buy the kit use the cams and then I,ve got the pistons ,sleeves etc for when it needs a freshen up later down the track

I had the BB cams installed in March of 2011 (I have a 2010 1600) parts, labor, and an aftermarket clutch install was $900 USD. I already had a D&D exhaust and UnI filter. the dealer had put in a 1700 TORs tune when I picked it up. It was a noticable difference.
Since then I have changed the exhuast and tried out several tunes (that others have be kind enough to post) and it keeps getting better.
and more than 20,000 miles since the cam swap. It will lift the front wheel in first and second or smoke the rear tire anytime you want (or sometimes when you dont want!)

Im thinking I might go with this option I already have long tors and a K&N so think ill decat it and get cams fitted and see how that goes. that's the problem with being an ex drag racer you always want more power

No reliability issues. I have done a couple of 900 miles days and 4-500 miles a day weeks since those cams went in with no problems.
The power curve definitely changes, without loosing any low end, it winds out faster and keeps on pulling. Pretty good for a factory cam. I am sure you could get a lot more out of a custom cam.

| | Posted : 01 Dec 2013 - 02:19 Post title : Re: 1700 cams in a 1600 ?? (Re: AussieDave) | | | I've also been wanting to do this for a long time, and I think I will at the 12k service interval. I've got just over 7k now, so I've got time. It stands to reason that most of the power gain is in the cams. 100cc is not that much of a difference. I like your idea of buying the entire kit, and saving the sleeves and pistons for some day in the future. It really depends on how much the cost difference is I guess. I think what you were quoted was high.

| | Posted : 01 Dec 2013 - 06:53 Post title : Re: 1700 cams in a 1600 ?? (Re: Lantesh) | | | I think the cams vs BB is the best bang for the buck. granted, i have not been able to compare but i'm quite sure the cams are probably 80% of the gains that the big bore kit gives. I did the BB and i'm glad i did just because i'm very anal about getting the most power i can and torque is king in my book. But i think the cost was well past the point of diminishing returns. I think the best route is cams and power commander with auto tune. I think the result will be close plus you have peace of mind that the fueling is accurate. Using mark's tune with the BB i'm probably a bit better power wise, but i don't have the peace of mind knowing the bike is fueled optimally for max reliability over the years i intend to keep it.

Hey Dave,
Brad knows his Tuneboy stuff, he has done a fair few of our bikes now, I have the 1700 Storm so didn't need the cams or BB kit.
He did mine about 12 months ago. Fitted Forans, removed cat, K&N filter, air box mod, tuneboy tune and dyno.
I've had no issues and i'm very happy with the set up.
One thing though, I only got the results afterwards. What I should have done was get him to dyno the bike before and after, so as to get a good measure of the gains.
Cheer Smitty

Not sure where the dyno sheets are at the moment.
I did a search and found the tread "Tuneboy Question" in "Performance Mods" from Jan last year, where I posted the info......
"Had my 1700 Storm done last week.
Foran pipes, cat removed, crossover installed, K&N filter, airboxseal removed, Tuneboy Tune and Dyno.
I was expecting the big difference to be mainly on paper, but was very impressed with the very noticeable improvement on the road.
The Dyno sheet only shows a bit over 6hp and 5nm torque gains from Triumph Tune to the Tuneboy tune. (both runs with the above mods)
I should have had a Dyno run in stock trim first, then i would see how much gain was from the pipes & mods and how much gain from the tune, but too late now.....
Anyhow, I am totally happy at this early stage with the look, sound, quality and the very noticeable performance improvements....."

Same here. I didn't do exactly what you did, but essentially the same thing. Short tors, gutted cat box (a bit more than gutted actually) seal removed, and custom tune which is a power commander tune someone uploaded and converted for use with tuneecu. Mark's seat hack tune to be exact. I have said it a few times and i'm sure some think i'm FOS, but having had the 1700 kit put in my formerly 1600 Tbird, i think i have a good idea of the difference and i believe the catmod/pipes and tune gave me about the same gains as the 1700 kit did. I don't need a dyno to tell me anything because it's what my butt dyno feels that matters. And it feels a serious difference. In fact, i have since had no urge to seek out better performance. If someone finds a way to coax more out of it easily i'd be willing to give it a shot if it's cheap or free, but i have no more need to keep trying to get more as i have in the past. It may not be R3, but it's at that point where it has enough to keep me from feeling it's lacking at all. Till this point i DID feel it was lacking.

Because you said they used a triumph tune. The tune is ALL important ! It's what makes the mods do thier thing. Without a proper tune any mods you do with at best add a little bit and at worse make the bike run worse than without the mods. I'm rather shocked a dealer doesn't know enough to realize that ! You may wanna find a new place to have your bike worked on because if they don't get that i'd be afraid of what else them don't know.
If i install the tors tune in mine it runs like there are no mods. Don't they know the bc stuff comes with custom tunes?

| | Posted : 11 Jan 2014 - 19:22 Post title : Re: 1700 cams in a 1600 ?? (Re: intimidator32) | | | I see. Well, would do some serious research b4 u do the airbox thing. I kinda figured it might not be the way to go with this bike unless you are doing some very involved engine mods, and so far that looks to be the case judging from people's results so far. I think the stock tuned box is your best bet till you start doing serious mods. But i think with pipes, cat removal and tune, chances are the airbox will do little if anything to the good. I think that unless you plan on hotter than 1700 cam and some head work or such, your best bet is probably pipes/cat removal and a good tune. I think that the intake as is with just the seal removed supplies enough air for any exhaust mods you do and then some. A power commander preferably with autotune and the exhaust mods should be all you need to get the max performance you;re gonna get without cams and other work. There are a aussie few guys here getting power about as good as a R3 standard without airbox removal. Custom cams and exhaust mods and possibly some head work with custom tunes.
