Kelfords make great power on Evo 8's but the GSC's and FP4R's for IX's are the bee knee's.
I hope STM starts making cams for IX's. There is also the custom GSC's from English Racing.
Looks like its all coming together homie. Happy for you.

its all about how the cars tuned at idle, i can make mine lope, or make it so you cant even tell it has cams. personally i like the mild lope in the video you posted. not a good example tho, cause your exhaust sounds better then that evo's.
I understand you can adjust idle etc of the cams to get them to sound a certain way for sure but i know the more aggressive the cam its harder to dull the effect if you get when im saying.

after i heard shunderwunders car with fp 4r I was hooked on them love they way they sounded gave his car grunt and muscle sounding without being over the top. I was going to get kelfords then some people started having issues with them on 2.4 but were evo 9s could have been the mivec either way at the time I was like ill look for a set of them if i come across a set for a baller price ill do it. ending up buying them mildly new 3k miles on them for 320 shipped so not bad 
I was shooting for mild sounding tame. hence why i did not choose to loud exhaust system. I dont know its freaking out or sounding like its on its last leg. My goal was to avoid a loud sounding car. unless pushing it of course. Just dont want daily driving to become annoying and headache producing like you see some folks. All that loudness makes it hard in early morning when you have to go to work and you are awaken by a obnoxious car.

i did against a lingenfelter zr1 had the 650hp package. i beat him but he had traction issues also, so not a fair race i guess. put 2 cars on him with him leaving early. i need to get it to the track soon tho yes.. id love to see what it traps. i want 140mph or more in full kill mode if possible. when i ran the zr1 i was 42psi spiking.
right now im in the middle of doing a custom catch can setup, you can check in that "for anyone that has crankcase pressure issues" thread it shows what im doing. its so cold tho right now the cars in garage and i hate going down there now. its 30F right now. whats the coldest it gets in louisiana?

I dont have anything to do really after this. I dont daily drive it, i put about 5-6k miles on it a year at the most.
