Am I reading the graphs correctly -- you are seeing 40+ ft lbs of tq increase and ~60 hp increase at peak? What is the TQ and HP increase across the power band? Are the AFRs the same in the pre and post graphs?
These improvements look amazing if I am reading correctly....You have a HUGE opportunity on your hands
....CONGRATS!

Or is it all in the ramp rates and duration? My cams are less than a month old and out of date.

....CONGRATS!to be honast there is even more in them as unbelivable as it is. with timing fine tuning the mivec i would bet another 10whp can be found in this car. Scary and unbelivable but true.
The reason i posted the Stock cam, stock tune TBE car vs adding a set of S1 cams and a mild tune, is to show that with a mild tune, and a set of cams your looking at somewhere in the 53whp 46wht as far as gains on the stock turbo.
I owe you one for the harness help, so, hurry up with the s2's.

no it wont be a problem at all. the S2's are designed for more peak power and a slower spooling turbo. the S1's if used with an aftermarket turbo just wont get the same peak numbers that the S2's will, but will still perform wounderfully.

so what im understanding S1 is gonna be the better daily driving cam... little bit smoother little more refined..
the s2 is more of drag type cams... just raw meant to make power than thats all
s3's are out of my league so im not gonna bother...
i'm a stock turbo IX with meth... should i go with the S2 since theyre gonna make a bit more power.. i dont mind the harsh ride... or are the S1 made specifically for the stock turbo and are going to be the best under every circumstance.
cheers!

S2's are not more of a drag type cam, Drivability of them will be the same, our cams are designed with area under the curve in mind. always have, always will. they are just suited for those running larger turbo's, 30R's 50 trims, 35R's.
S3's are for race cars, whether drag race or road race.

I'm really confused - are these the same cams that came out for the IX last month or something different? I ask because the dyno numbers look like the same graphs that were posted before, which is why I said "No new info?"
