I actually just read an interesting bit about a Camcon for a BEAMS.

One of the first few posts there says that the BEAMS ECU, as well as the 2ZZ ECU, is smart enough to figure out what you've done after a little while and correct it. I know literally nothing about tuning to get more power and I know virtually nothing about SAFC's. It sounds to me like tuning VVT is a great way to make power though. That's one of the reasons I prefer Toyota's VVT-i to Honda's VTEC. VTEC uses a different set of lobes on the cam whereas VVT-i can actually control the timing of the cam, so you can tune it as opposed to just waiting for it to kick in. You should bring the Celica to the meet. Valve timing will have never changed so much at one single 6gc.net meet.
