Default Cam kit question

Guys,

How much power would we get out of adding this cam kit? There were no #'s or power gain info in their ad: (I am not with seller)

Default you'd need a turbo to huff the higher rpm's first.

k04 is still too small.

BT folks would probably love it..

you see alot of these turbo kits still poop at 6500 or so thats no fun gotta **** it to at least 7200rpm

Default I have looked into it. Revolver make some nice cams.

Given the cost of the cams, the install and the uncertainty of performance gains if the car can't be tuned for them. I was encouraged to hold off.

SOmething like a KO4 turbo upgrade would be money better spent.


Would love to do it but Outcome is not certain.

Let me know if you end up doing it though. WOuld love to here about it.

Default 2nd.

I can imagine tuning being big prob. Really depend what kind power you trying to achieve. Like Awadd9 said. k04 is nice option if you not trying to go big turbo.

cam gains are minimal, even with bigger turbos and other engine mods. No bang for the buck! I say skip, and spend the money on a turbo upgrade.
