Staggered setups like that typically have better road manners/ driveability. Low end torque doesn't seem to suffer as much however I have found a good bit more HP going to the straight 272 setup on my car. My experience may be unique.

How much did the tune run ya?

dont do it, just go w/ 272's, i have 272s in my car, idle is great and no loss of lowend, stagger setup is old school now, HKS 272 is really mild cams compare to all other cams on market.

Yeah my HKS 272's were fun but I'm going to swap them out with a set of Kelford 272's and a FP red
