I had GSC S2's in my 2006 EVO 9...and they were fantastic at the track and in parkway traffic...no idle issue at all...even with AC on.

I had Buschur tune my car....so it was spot on....

If you are having problems..its not the cams, it would be the tune...

Thanks buddy for your input, I am currently stock cams just looking for a decent cam. I have heard good things about s2's esp with their improved profile over the original grind.

So, yeah, still not a 9 second pass, but getting closer. Unfortunately, looks like I'm gonna be on tranny rebuild number 2 shortly.

Ask for Jason. They did great work with my damaged Volks and do fantastic powdercoats as well. Very reasonably priced and fast turnaround time.

I just saw this. I have the pressure plate (and worn disc) from a Clutch Masters FX300. It was in my X for about 30K. This disc is worn, but the pressure plate is still in good condition. Don't know if this is any help or not.
