sadly enough, i think im running the smallest vvt cam in this particular group. id jump to the vvt-2, but would need set of heads to go with it

I assume you logged these runs. Did you see anything interesting in the data that might explain the above? Also did you confirm the cam timing was remaining static when you locked it at +2 and +4?
Its all about trapped air, aka airmass.
