Garrick,

Due to the wide range of numbers seen at the wheels, WORKS rates all its numbers at the flywheel (just like the manufacturer). I'll see if I can get some info on lift posted when I put up a dyno graph.

When you're quoting gains, can you plz post what octane you are tuning for? 91 - 93 or higher???

Get 'em both - they complement each other well!

I got the throttle body before the cams.

I did the Throttle Body first. I do not have the cams, but feel that you cannot go wrong with the throttle body. If you are going to make your car work harder with the cams, why not increase air flow to the engine first?

I am going to step on Jamie's toes again. The total cams/springs/retainers is only $38.00 more than the Labor day price.

The numbers we quote are using 91 octane and using the same boost levels before/after.

This was our Labor Day Special. However, after talking it over with the rest of the WORKS crew, we're going to continue this pricing as a package deal. That's right $999 for cams, springs and retainers!

Sweet, thanks! Any guesstimation on what 93 would produce? I'm not going to hold you to it, but am very curious. PM me if you want. I'm assuming the same sweet curve that you guys always produce, so no problems there.

c'mon Santa, bring me cash this year!!!

93 Octane generally brings you a few more HPs. I can't specifically say how much, but I can't think of a reason you shouldn't gain 30 (or more?) on HP/TQ. Talk to you around Christmas time
