wow if that is a custm regrind then our stock cams must really suck.... actually looks more like a turbo cam profile. if it were me i would want some major overlap and alot more duration. with the cvvt i think you could get away with it and stil have a decent idle and some good top end gains.

That is some very short duration.I am used to V-8'S WITH 268-292 DEGREES OF DURATION AT .05 LIFT.
No a lot of lift either considering it is a direct lift.
Very conservative considering only 22 degrees of overlap.
That explains the better results with the SRI compared to the CAI.
Also reinforces the idea of not going too big on the exhaust in order to maintain the siphon effect of scavenging.
I would have expected a dual pattern with longer duration and higher lift on the intake. :beer:
Glock having a short duration in which the valves are lifted off the seats means you have a very short time to get air in and out of the cylinder,therefore responding better to forced induction.
overlap=the time both valves are open at the same time,more able to maintain constant flow of air through heads.Exhaust helps pull in intake air ,intake helps push out exhaust gases.Longer and shorter is better to an extent .After that you will lose some cylinder pressure due to overscavenging or lack of cylinder fill.
