I am not giving out the specs on the cams. There are some good cams out on the market. I have said that in the past. The JUN 272's work well, the Tomei 280's work well. We did a bunch of cam testing and then sent in multiple sets of cams to the company that made them for us, we had them look at the cams that worked well and told them to make us a cam based on the information they found from the cam sets we sent them for the best overall cam.

Judging from the power my RS is making and the power we are making consistently on pump gas on many other builds, I'd say the cam was ground correctly to give us what we wanted.

I do not suggest the cams for use with the stock ECU, I do not feel the idle is going to be good at all. You will also need a set of very high quality valve springs.

I agree your cams are the ****. I have them currently on the stock ecu with some tuning we got the car to idle pretty decent. I think it is much easier to get the tune right on the stand alone, but the stock ecu has come along

Yes, if you bought duals from us a year ago they should work fine.

Even though you say they aren't okay for the stock ecu.. I will still give them a shot (: I plan on AEM EMS if the stock ecu does not work out... Are supertech dual springs and ti retainers good for these??

Thanks (:

The idle may have been still on the cold start in the video, it does sound a little high. Even on the cars with stand alones I set the idle at 1100-1200 with the big cams.
