FP4R2 cams? Do they make power??

I have these cams installed in my evo 9
Does anyone have any experience with these?
What kind of power do they make ?
I'm trying to get around 375 on pump on a mustang dyno
Tuner recommends kelford 280
But if I can save 650$ and keep my cams I would rather do that

Any input is appreciated

What kind of turbo are you running? I would think you'd be good up to about a GT35R with those. The 280's will make more up top, but I'd imagine your low end would suffer depending on what you're after with your setup.

You'll be fine. Idk how the compare, but the dynojet power numbers in my sig with the GSC S2's are pretty close to the mustang numbers you're chasing.

I'm on stock turbo
Id1000 injectors
255flp
Cams
Speed density
Apexi exhaust

Also have spoolinup cop now but put that on after tune

I'm currently making 317 on the mustang dyno on 24lbs

I'm putting in arp headstuds in next week and bumping the boost to around 28 and re tune

I just wonder what kind of power these cams have made
My Tuner recommends the kelford 280
But he don't know if I'll see 370 on the mustang dyno with my cams

You're not going to do 375 on a mustang with a stock turbo unless you're really pushing it on E85, or pushing a good amount of meth with 93. Its really nothing to do with the cams at this point. You need a turbo upgrade, and an intercooler. You might make 360 depending on how much timing it can take at those boost levels on pump gas.

Good luck. Cams aren't going to make a big difference, if any. The stock turbo is already pretty much out of airflow.

377 on stock turbo on a properly calibrated Mustang Dyno seems to be a little optimistic.

I made 363 on an old-school Green on 100 octane at 24 psi on GST's Mustang Dyno. We could have upped the boost, but that was almost 7 years ago and before people figured out the Evo really liked boost over timing.

Keep the cams. Your concern should be a turbo investment

You got the injetors to support E85. Tune it on E85 and see if you'll hit near 400 wtq. Then drive it awhile before you upgrade to FP Black/Blouch/FP Red.
