hey jaws, i don't think there have been
any true before and after dyno runs. the
frpp website shows the possible gains.

if i were n/a, these would be going in,
along with a bama tune.

Guys, I'll dig up my old dyno sheet with my current mods. I think I was at 305rwhp or 310... cant remember. But my Hot Rod cams are supposed to go in this week. I'll then do another dyno run to see what I got after the install. I just got Dougs updated tune last week. Im so excited, I cant hardly stand it

Good for sound...but the gains... arent really worth the time...the sound is though... the gains have been inconsistant so far with these cams... I would wait a few more weeks to see if anyone else posts some results that match either Doug's claim of 17rwhp or Ford's claim...

I think everyone will agree who has followed MylocalDJ's experience. As I told him before not to pay those guys at the shop the dealer took it too. The first thing I would have told them, after they told me that my car was out of balance would be GO GET MY KEYS. I installed these and the car was in no way out of balance I don't care how they define it. So, no his experience with these cams should not be viewed as a measuring stick for these cams. I am putting down 337 HP @ 5486 RPM and 331 TQ @ 4393 RPM, and the shop I take it too is going too look at it again once I can get time to get back on the dyno.

I'm looking at your numbers, being that u lost almost 30 ft pds of tq, is your car any faster?

Have you ran it at the track before and after the cams?
