TurbTrix Cams on IX?

Is anybody running the TurboTrix cams on their IX? I have their 280 intake cam (not installed yet) and was just wondering if anyone had tried these recently.

I have the exhaust one installed. No problems at all and idles beautifully.

I'm most likely not going to touch the intake one since its aggressive enough and there is a possibility it will mess things up..

Did you put all your mods in at one time, then tune, or did you put the cams in at at different time, then tune? I'm just wondering if they're worth putting in or waiting to get some different ones. Also, I'm trying to decide on getting either the comp 280+ or 270+ exhaust cam.

I had everything installed at once, search my username and you should see the post and the comments.I would wait because i have had two ses light since the cams, both camshaft position sensor p0011. I even had to retune the car because of 26psi and 15counts of knock thanks to a vender i will not name.

They aren't popular, because they didn't make power on customer cars. Jeff's situation was very disappointing.

Thanks for not mentioning vendors by name. I don't want this to turn into a pissing contest. Can you attribute your problem to the cams, or is it just a guess. I'm not questioning you at all, I just want to get mreo info before I install this cam. If it's not worth it, I'll just get rid of it and wait to get another set. I know intially they were very expensive. That's why I figured there weren't many people running them.
