http://www.briancrower.com/view.php?pn=BC0111

they seem like a great price compared to other 272's but I just wanted some feedback. Couldn't find much searching for the part number on here. anyone use these or recommend these order the HKS camms or other brands?

I know about 5 years ago these were all I ever really heard of. Just curious...

I've ran with the bc 272 cams on my evo 8 and they did improve the power band over a stock set of cams and at the price that I paid for them I thought it was a good trade off, they are a mild street cam and this was some time ago, now I'm looking into a set of gsc s1 cams, a couple of good things I can say about the bc cams is that they idle well and can pass smog if you live in a state that is very strict on emissions. This is of course after you get tuned.

If you had to choose between the stock cams on an evo 9 and bc cams I would stick with stock cause I have seen great results from tweaking with the mivec and stock cams on an evo 9.

As for the evo x I haven't heard of anyone running bc cams with them.

I actually have an evo 8. So non Mivec. what about the HKS camms? I've heard good things about those as well

how come GSC s2 cams? I'm on a 3076R with probably 450hp so I don't think I need a GSC s2 set up because everyone rates them more for 500-700hp
