Hello,
A lot of comments on thses cams.
Yes cams are very much expensive in Korea.
These prices are not increased from what customers pay in Korea.
Actual highcams (not 1.8L or XD/GT Cam) needs ECU upgrades.
Heck, ECU tuning is always nice even on stock vehicle.
ECU upgrade will be available but not any time short, honestly.
The purpose of posting these cams is for someone out there looking for a set.
If you are looking for extensive engine work, 1.8L pistons and GK head gaskets will increase the compression ratio as well.
If you are aiming for 200hp motor then 13:1 NA pistons are needed.
So if you are thinking of these cams as just your exhaust or intake, then you are wrong.
With a correct setting, 15-20 hp can be gained.
Yes it is not a big number compared to turbo's 50~100hp gain.
But if you drive 160~70 WHP Tiburon and then drive stock 130~40 WHP Tiburon, then you will be like, so slow...just so slow.
Large torque gain could be felt from 5000RPM upto 7500RPM.
I am not looking for large sales on these cams, but customers will know when they "NEED" some highcams, they will know where to look.
Thanks.
David

thanx david for the input.. anyway we can get some dynos on these cams, just to show us some numbers.. 100 hp from cams seems insane.... even 50 seems nuts..
i will probably be purchasing the milder version of these cams in the future.. i would just like to see some numbers or intalled testimonies.. thanx..

If you got to 400whp on the stock head, then I could see a 100whp gain from these cams and some good head work. Our head is that bad.
I'll probably get these once I get to the 350whp mark, but damn, that's a lot of cash to save up for.
