Revolver Cams ..

Anyone have them in there car? Curious as to what to expect from them. They are supposed to be similar to the Tomei's at a significant savings. I want to know the quality of them as well as the numbers and drivability.

Holy crap I put down more than that with no cams, no IC pipes, no IC, etc. What kind of dyno is that and is that Autronic turned on? WTF? It's almost as if B.G.A. tuned it!

That's exactly what I was thinking. Unless that particular dyno reads real low, that setup should yield at least 350awhp.

hks have been proven over and over again. the prices arent that bad for what you get. they just need some more people to test it so they can get dynos out for customers to see. that was the first one i seen for these cams

the kTR dyno is a dyno dynamic which reads even lower than Shiv's dyno. my EVO dynoed at 235 whp on their dyno a day after i dynoed 265whp on a dynojet at the same conditions.

Anyine have them on their cars and would like to share the drivability. I currently have anHKS 272/272 set up and would like more power down low. Was thinking of 264/272 and then heard of these cams with higher lift making good power and have great drivability.

As Blonde pointed out, it's the Dyno Dynamics number.. Go get roughly some Dynojet numbers, multiply the DD by 1.15 (good estimate)

yea, i have those cams dialed in for torque, the peak horsepower i've made with them was about 309whp, but i would rather have that torque...

this is a stock turbo (stock hot side) on 93 octane pump gas... the cams are NA responsive, not lazy like i have experienced with the hks cams (264/272, 272/272)...



and this is on a dyno dynamics dyno...
