anyone running the Reese Tuning Mivec cams if so what is your out take on the increases, power, torgue, Like or Dislike any input is excepted.

 

judgen from what ive read about this guy id honestly be pretty damn sketchy to buy anything from him..if you want to make damn sure your getting a true quality piece id say buy from a reputable vender (English Racing, MAP, STM n so on )

thanks yeah i read that as well and it scared me too but i also wanted to see other peoples views on them to just compare not many cams out there for the mivec head ive read reviews on whats out just wanted to see whats with the new stuff

 

again best thing to do is call a shop that does cam installs/tunes Evos all the time. they will be able to explain in more detail exactly how a certain cam will perform for a given engine combo.

 

I prefer force performance fp4r

Great power. Perfect idle with mivec.

I have them on my evo 8 also.

But I would personally stay away from RT. He's been ripping people off lately.

He will soon have several lawsuits from people I know..

 

Go with GSC S2's. They will make good power.

i currently have the fp4r was looking for a little upgrade maybe ill just go to the fp5r

 

S2's

 

5R require big valve pockets which may not work properly on a stock motor.

 

i have CP pistons with much deeper valve reliefs then stock John do you know if these pistons would work or not

 

They should. Stock pistons are really really close with 12mm of lift, anything aftermarket is normally deeper. As many CP pistons as I have seen, admittedly not much, the valve pocket never looked shallow.

 

Thank you for you input also. Im running stock turbo on e85 trying to get the most out of it as i can

 

with the help of Mr Bradley he helped me select the GSC-S3's for my engine.

 

I appreciate all the kind comments. Funny thing is Emery from STM actually tested the cams and ran them in a customer car he had been tuning, building etc. The cams performed very well and made exceptional power considering the mods. I believe that car went on to set the stock turbo record beating Curt Brown. The cams are a quality grind and core. Regardless of all the recent issues and rumors, the RT cam does well in most all street cars.
