I was contemplating getting them as well and selling my NEW HKS 280's but they told me that they were the same.

My advice to you is if you havent bought cams yet then get the comp cams, since a MSRP of $440 isnt bad at all. If you already have HKS cams, keep them

Arent they 440 A PIECE? If not, Im sold! The only other cam I can think of that'd be worth looking into are the Tomei ProCam 280's. Their duration is the same, but they have .7mm more lift. Never saw any dyno results in comparison, however. The big arguement is that if you do buy the Tomei's, the research backing up all the HKS units is far more widespread opposed to the few using tomei's units. I figure this is the same with the Comps, but TT would be a one stop shop.

Anyone have the specs on these cams? Lift and whatnot?

There have been three threads about these cams and still no information.

10.4394mm overall lift,equating roughly to about the HKS units. I still like the specs and results Ive seen on the Tomei's....they are more extreme and expensive as hell, twice the price of the comps and 30% more than the HKS....but the comps seem awesome. If TT is using those in their orange shop car, I dont see how they could be BAD!

Please post results and comments about these cams, as Im sure there are many hungry buyers out there. 440 bucks plus shipping and installation is phenominal!
