Cams for VQ30DE

Be patient guys, new after market cams for our motors will be available in a very short time an d they're coming from a very highly respected scource. Please don't ask who, what, where, or why, because I cannot discuss it. But remember, I am not a bull-shi**er!!

How will they help our car? Just wondering. Will it matter if you already have mods in the car like intake, Y, catback, N2O? Just wondering.

I know of someone who prototyped cams for a '99. The gains were amazing, but the car couldn't idle. If ya get that problem solved, then I'm in

NA cams differ from forced induction cams. im not sure bout superchargers but turbo cams have different duration and lift then NA cams. in general NA cams are more aggressive with valve overlap i belive and can cause a lumpier idle and turbo cams idle smoother with less or no overlap.

Yeah, I'd definitely be in on these cams, if they were for forced induction....its gonna get kinda expensive if i go through crower because they are 135 bucks a cam, plus stock cores.....
