I guess one thing that will make a huge difference is how aggressive these "TFS-51812001" cams are. Some people are under the impression that these cams would be comparable to a stage one cam... I have my doubts if they are peaking that high though.

I'm glad I just stuck with patriot heads. Cheap and easy and still gave me gains I expected.

I wanna see how these perform with some sort of FI. I mean N/A is good and all but I wanna see some numbers with boost being thrown at these things. I'd imagine that these heads paired with a nice supercharger or turbo(s) would perform amazing!!! And those cams seem like they arent really aggressive.

Im only happy because this creates competition. That means the price of the other heads will go down in cost.

Actually that is true. But probably only to an extent because the trickflow are more than the ported head as is.

I just saw where the dyno numbers they posted are STD corrected, not SAE corrected. This just adds to the disappointment. STD is usually around 4-5% higher than SAE.
