That's great, but do they have experience working on Korean engines? I doubt it. Please, post stuff about other companies products in another thread.
Ehh, which info? I posted most of it already. I'll go get the other stuff from the other cam thread, you lazy b****.

Huh? There will be a core charge involved, I'm sure, but I'll have a set of OEM ones being shipped for stock when I swap mine out.
Not many. Depends on the experience of the company doing it. You can lose hardness or have wear issues if they aren't done properly, but Colt assured me there is no loss of hardness on ours, and that they should run really nice.
The Kias that this same grind have gone onto have dyno'd at about 15 WHP increase, so yeah,you'd wanna do the stock cams. How would we know, it hasn't been installed yet! Probably not though.
Let me go dig up the specs again...
Uploading the pics now.

Seriously, I don't think teaser posts like this should be allowed. Just post the info already!

Would it be better to regrind my stock intake cam, or the 1.8? And do I throw a CEL or lose reliability on this?

As for Hyd pre-load you should not have a problem the
factory always leaves extra, so no shimming should be required.
Please keep us informed.
There was no hardness loss, so don’t worry about the longevity.
Here are the spec’s for you.
Prim Int: 274° .363 Lift
Sec Int: 266° .353 Lift
EX: 274° .363 Lift

So Korean cams are "special" cams that don't look or serve the purpose of any other cam? A cam is a cam. A regrind is a regrind, ^^ that made no sense. I was also not referring to company products in your thread, hence there is no product name or company name.
The reason I said that was because:
Your company that you got the cams re-worked from is Canadian.
The local shop is called...Colt Cams, same company, they just opened up 2 months ago so they could get a shop here in the east. They do GREAT work, a cpl local guys have had some work done there recently. The material on the cams is NOT WELDED on like some other shops will do, its a special SPRAY technique which is unbelievable to watch and insures 100% coating, hardening, and doesn't "wear"
So what I'm saying is that these cams are VERY high quality regrinds. Only company I'm going to let touch my cams.

Those look great man.
Now get rid of your Rev limiter, and rev to 7000rpm. You could rev to 7500 on stock springs and rods, but do be safe, 7000 is a good limit wink1.gif

The only way to adjust the rev limiter is with a standalone ignition right? Also Red are you going to run a stock computer, can our ecus adjust to these? Or will we have to piggyback or something else?

Guys, this is just about these cams, and that's ALL that's being done is the cams. Tuning/standalones/piggybacks can be considered, as with any other mods, but I won't even think about it unless I have problems with this.
Please STOP asking about damned tuning. You all know the answers there as well as I do.
I really can't, this is my daily driver and we have OBDII Emissions here.
Yes sir. You are anxious, shit, how do you think I feel? LOL
I don't know, nor do I really care right now, it's not the point of the cams. I'm dynoing them, like I said, with before and after on the stock ECU. My Rev Limiter is high enough, 6500 is plenty, I drive twisties and don't take it THAT high THAT much. Yes, I'm running a stock computer still as I said. The other Kias and such running these haven't had any problems that I've heard of, so no.
