I hooked up a Durametric to my 2001 Boxster S and noticed that the Cam deviation was 6.4 on one bank and 4.7 on the other.

I think the specs allow 6 deviation so being that I'm out of spec I stopped racing.

Is this something I need to worry about, is being out of spec a serious issue with the engine timing?

For racing i'd rather bring it back into the good range and wonder what needs fixing in order to bring it back in line.

Any Ideas, suggestions?
