Advancing or retarding the camshafts in relation to the crankshaft is another performance tool you have to move your power and torque exactly where you want it.

Advancing a camshaft opens the intake earlier and closes the exhaust earlier. This will shift the power curve down, and produce more low range torque at the loss of a little top-end power.

Retarding the camshafts shifts the power band up, increasing mid-range and top-end torque, at the loss of the bottom-end.

Its easy to do on the 16v 928 and 8v 944 engines – removing the timing belt, then camshaft sprocket, replace the key and re-assemble.
