You stated that these new cams do not need to be upgraded if you have jun or tomeis. But what if some one is looking to upgrade from say hks cams or something smaller. What is the power difference between these new cams of yours and say the juns, tomei, revolver etc. in terms of area under the curve and peak horsepower?

He already said he showed gains upwards of 40 hp on big turbo cars. Which is fitting because If I recal switching from HKS 280's to JUN 272's on a gt35r someone picked up 60 something wheel hp pulling them from high 400's to mid 500's. HKS cams are good for stock ECU stock turbo IMO. Bigger is always better. And to the person who said that other vendors are selling them too, but dave needs to just let us know what they are so we can compare prices. They are custom ground camshafts, only he is selling them, and there cheap as dirt, whats to complain about.

The Revolvers have shorter effective duration than JUN 272, which means that Revolvers are a better match for a smaller turbo setup. However the benefits of the higher lift of the Revolver cams cannot be realized with a stock head.

In short, effective duration (duration at 1mm) is a strong factor in cam selection. Smaller turbo setups aren't well suited to JUN 272, Tomei 280, etc. These cams work best in rpm ranges where a smaller turbo loses its steam. Those who think that bigger cam = bigger power with a small turbo will find this not to be the case. The only thing the bigger cam will do is make low speed power suffer.

For smaller turbo setups, GSCs, JUN 264, and Revolver appear to be the most viable options. Stock head cars need not be overly concerned with anything greater than ~10mm lift, while ported head cars will respond favorably to higher lift in proportion to how competently they are ported. Even so, the higher lift can't make the turbo flow any more air, but it will boost the midrange if one really puts the screws to it with high octane fuel and ample boost pressure.

We put the Cosworth cams in Tom's car, he made 645 whp in a combination that those numbers are extremely impressive for. So for now we are using/recommending the Cosworth's for the EVO9's.

The Revolvers are GREAT for the stock turbo's, TME, 20g's and the Green, probably for a GT3071 too as it is pretty small for a GT30.

Turbo's larger than that will benefit from these cams, JUN 272's or Tomei 280's.

Springs, we have a set of dual springs that work great with these or any other cam for $275, springs and titanium retainers.

From page two. I HAD THESE CAMS GROUND CUSTOM. Releasing specs or who ground them or anything else is not beneficial to ANYONE except a guy that wants to either copy them OR go around me and try to get them. NOBODY can buy them as I PAID to have them ground.

I also see absolutely NO freaking reason to tell anyone what they are or who made them. Frankly at this point in time I could care less what anyone thinks about how I am selling them. Why should I give out specs? The price is cheaper than you can buy HKS, JUN or Tomei for. They work as well or better than ANY other cam I have tested.

You can either take my word for it and buy them, make great power at a reasonable price or you can go elsewhere, it's quite simple actually.

I am no longer in business to please everyone on EVOm, I have grown tired of that as it is impossible.

Anyone that knows me knows I won't promote something that doesn't work so those guys will buy these cams. Those that doubt everything I say will buy elsewhere anyway.

For a Green turbo or smaller I'd say the best bet is the HKS 280's unless the Revolvers some day become available again.
